Mr. JMember of Congress, 

Washington, D, C. 

Sir: Again it is about to be demonstrated that '^honesty is 
the best policy," as well when seeking special privilege in legis- 
lation as in other enterprise. 

President Taft said on February 22nd, 1909: ''So marked has 
been the increase in importance of the medical profession in 
governmental agencies, that the doctors themselves have Organ- 
ized a movement for the unification of all agencies in the Fed- 
eral Government used to promote the public health into one 
bureau or department." Then the ''Committee of One Hundred 
on National Health" was 7iot "originated in the Economic Sec- 
tion of the x\merican Association for the Advancement of Sci- 
ence," as claimed in its literature, but is a mask of the "doc- 
tors' movement" and its influential names are loaned to the 
doctors. 

The President's statement is verified by 33 years of effort by 
the American Medical Association, and their very object of or- 
ganization 62 years ago. This, then, is also true of the "Public 
Health Defense League." 

Also true of the "President's Homes Commission." Also true 
of Professor Irving Fisher's "Report on National Vitality," 
Professor Fisher being the president of the Committee of One 
Hundred. 

Are these doctor interests now, and have they for near 500 
years been knowingly and designedly practicing a false pretense 
to the world; abolishing a Pagan system of treatment practiced 
for near 500 years in Rome, and many more in Greece, before 
these interests secured state control of medicine, only now to 
return to and endorse a system as their neiv school, which 2,500 
years ago was the system of the highest civilization of the 
world, and to do so only, because in demonstration of Pagan 
medicine in its parts by independent agencies, these interests 
must return to such Pagan sj^stem, or by an indignant and out- 
raged people be driven from the earth, and lose their political 
power? 

If in political control gf the practice of medicine for sixteen 
hundred years, knowing every minute of the merit and advan- 
tages of the system they now laud, they should first be heard to 



explain the reason they have not heretofore ^'organized a move- 
ment" for its adoption. 

We think the reason is not far to demonstrate, and shows an 
appalling inhumanity, surpassing Pagan cupidity, and lust for 
power. What are the facts of history? Before the Christian 
era there appears to have been no system of medicine called 
''regular." Centuries before the birth of Christ, the Asklepiad 
system of medicine of the Greeks was practiced in Rome, and 
that wa s the medical system of Rome practiced by the Asklepiad 
priests, until the accession of Constantine, the first Christian 
emperor of Rome, who joined the Roman church to the Roman 
state; convened the first council of the Roman church at Nicae 
and abolished the Pagan priesthood of Asklepiad, and with it 
their system of medicine faded into the system controlled by 
the Roman Catholic Church down to this day, and for centuries 
practiced in the Western world by her priests and monks alone. 

Today the Roman Catholic Church and the American Medical 
Association indirectly a part of it, hard pressed by the essentials 
of the system which they had displaced, now revived in inde- 
pendent hands; and anticipating loss of political power and utter 
discrediting of their system, boldly move for legislation under 
which they can control the whole practice of the healing art, and 
if to their interest put in practice or defeat, the very Pagan 
system which sixteen centuries ago they abolished. 

For all of that time they have had the knowledge of that system 
and its advantages; for all of sixteen centuries they have had 
the record of its centuries of practice in Greece and Rome. For 
centuries they have with this knowledge controlled the practice 
of medicine, her medical priests reaching the Pope's chair; have 
seen under their own practice diseases multiply, general resist- 
ance decline, and the span of life shorten, with no move until 
now, to adopt the system so well known to them, that now they 
offer and promise in alluring statement, if they get this legisla- 
tion, better general health and a longer span of life. 

With this knowledge for so many centuries and the direct 
and indirect control of the practice of medicine for sixteen 
centuries and today, why has not the Roman Catholic Church, 
claiming to represent the mercy of Heaven itself, advocated this 
system and offered to put it in practice when it was not to be 
traded for political power? Why has not the great American 
Medical Association, if it is or ever was American in its aims 
and observation of law; why has not it, with all its claim to 
research and scientific knowledge, heretofore offered this sys- 
tem which they now offer with confidence and logical argument 
of its excellence? It has existed. If they exist independent of 



the Roman Church and they read as they claim to, they have 
known it. Why, then, except in subjection to its mother, the 
Roman Catholic Church, to serve her ends, to make the people 
dependent on the institutions producing great revenue for her, 
and through her poisoning to finally conquer us to her temporal 
and spiritual domination; why have they not given us this 
Pagan system of 2,500 years ago, now so suddenly grown to 
excellence? 

When this Greek system was introduced in Rome, Cato made 
protest. 

"Pliny, who himself believed little in the profession of medi- 
cine, but more in oracles and simple home remedies, has pre- 
served for us the denunciations of Cato the Censor. He held 
that all medical services ought to be gratuitously rendered. 
For this reason, he declared, the Romans placed his (Aescu- 
lapius) sanctuary outside the city upon the island in the Tiber. 
Besides, he adds: 'The race of Greeks (from whom Rome got 
this system) is very vicious; and, my son, believe this as the 
voice of an oracle, that, with its literature, it will spoil every- 
thing at Rome. It will be worse still if it sends us its physicians. 
They have sworn among themselves to kill all other nations 
with their medicines. They exercise their art for the sake of 
gain and seek to get our confidence in order to be able to poison 
us the more easily. Remember, my son, I charge you to have 
nothing to do with the physicians.' " The Roman Catholic 
Church, upon this hint, abolished the system of medicine which 
today they recommend, and did adopt a system well calculated 
to fulfill Cato's prediction. 

Here a century or more before the Christian Era is a veritable 
oracle, amply vindicated by time, upon the apostasy of the 
Church of Rome through her literature, from the doctrines of 
Jesus Christ and her prostitution of His name, the perverting 
of the system of healing which she found, and substituting for 
it a system well adapted to the killing of all other nations in 
their health, and bringing them under the care of the church; 
"they exercise their art (of healing) for the sake of gain (to the 
church) and seek to get our confidence (in professions of piety 
and charity) in order to be able to poison us (with their med- 
icines) the more easily," and thus make us the more dependent 
on their hospitals and homes. The name of Christ, and the 
healing art, prostituted to "gain," and temporal power. 

Could anything be more logical than, with the knowledge of 
the Asklepiad system of healing, and the warning of Cato, they 
take for their own line of action the hint of Cato, as a means of 
attaining great wealth, temporal power over all nations, and in 



actual results deliver to us in the twentieth century, more misery 
physically and spiritually; more diseases, greater mortality, and 
a shorter span of life, and builded the Papacy to a wealth and 
power on that insidious system of murder, unrivaled in all his- 
tory. 

Health Culture has said within about a year: ''Once arrived 
at adult age the average man or woman has few years of sur- 
vival to expect. . . . Eyqw during the last fifteen years the 
death rate among all persons over fifty-five years of age of both 
sexes has arisen very considerably.'' Mr. John K. Gore, presi- 
dent of the Actuaries Society, supplements as follows: ". . . 
There is evidence that for more than two hundred years at least 
there has been in Europe and America a more or less continuous 
decrease in the mean duration of human life." Now, with the 
knowledge of what the Pagan Asklepiad system had done for 
Pagan Rome; with the record of what her own insidious pre- 
meditated murder system has done for .Europe and America; 
faced and menaced by independents of her system, in massage, 
osteopathy, herbal medicine, mental and hypnotic suggestion 
and bathing; all factors of that Pagan system, the Ptoman Cath- 
olic Church is forced to see her own system of subtle murder 
utterly discredited upon its record; to go to the scrap heap, 
anotherdiscreditingby the verypowershe claims to stand for upon 
the earth, or she must herself move to make the sj^stem universal, 
and in that move secure within the structure of the government, 
the power through which she designs to ''supplant by fraud" 
our free institutions. 

The only way she can do this without utter stultification and 
loss of political power, is to do it gradually through the power 
she aims to, through national health legislation; to save and 
further divert the medical business to her hospitals, and to 
extend it; to save her political power wielded through the 
"regular" system of medicine, and to extend it. 

Legislation which will land her by her medical arm in the very 
structure of the Government in a cabinet position. That is why 
Archbishop John Ireland is a member of the Committee of One 
Hundred on National Health. This is why James Cardinal Gib- 
bons is on one of its affiliate committees; that is why the "Fed- 
eration of Catholic Societies," subscribing to the "Public Health 
Defense League," an integral part of the economy of the Com- 
mittee of One Hundred is in this scheme. That is why the Knights 
of Columbus last April started a national movement to secure 
the appointment of a Secretary of Health in President Taft's 
cabinet. That is why practically the whole power of the Roman 
Catholic Church in his country is in this movement of the "doc- 



tors themselves." That is why the Catholics for eight years 
have been licking the boots of Roosevelt and Taft, that they 
might be fed out of their hands. To get into the very structure 
of the Government itself, nullifying the Constitution in a 
practically permanent cabinet position, of the general plan to 
"supplant by fraud" our free institutions. The Aesculapians, 
Hippocrates, Galen, Paracelsus, Erasistratos, the monumental 
names of medical history, were all of the system which the 
church abolished. Of their own school, Savonarola and Harvey 
are probably of the highest excellence. Harvey's discovery was 
anticipated by Erasistratos, a Pagan, and Savonarola and Harvey 
were put under the ban as innovators and ''heretics." Savon- 
arola was burned alive, in exemplification of the grace, mercy, 
and peace of the Heavenly Father, in May, 1498. Rome's greatest 
claim to fame medical is, that with the introduction of syphilis 
into the Western World, she introduced from China the twin 
scourge of mercury, a strong competitor for destructive honors 
and the sheet anchor of hope to the Church for four centuries. 
Even her boasted discovery of Jenner in inoculation for small- 
pox, another busy poisoner and ally of the church, was borrowed 
from China, inoculation for small-pox there having been known 
to them a thousand years before the Christian Era. 



Asklepiads' System. 

'Tasting, abstinence from 
wine, and bathing were strictly 
enjoined. Mesmerism and mas- 
sage were among the chief agen- 
cies depended upon. Sleep- 
houses were always provided 
and great diligence employed 
to ascertain whether the pa- 
tients when in the hypnotic or 
clairvoyant condition, had re- 
ceived any suggestion in regard 
to their treatment. The medical 
means generally consisted of 
roots, herbs (though mercury 
was known), and a careful regi- 
men, togetherwith the various 
ceremonials, incantations and 
other magic observances." "In 
acute disorders he (Hippok- 
rates an Asklepiad) made great 
dependence upon cool ingc?miA's 



Dr. Osier's NEW School. 
Ency. Amer. 

"But by the middle of the 
century it began to diminish. 
Both the Homoeopathic and 
the regular schools based their 
practice, and many stillbsise it, 
on the study and administra- 
tion of drugs. 

They differed in the size and 
strength of doses, from huge 
boluses, or powders or draughs 
whose efficacy was supposed to 
be in proportion to their nau- 
seousness, to small bland tri- 
turations or dilutions, but not 
in the assumption that in them 
lay the one efficient method of 
dealing with disease. The ad- 
vanced school of the present 
does not discard medicines; so 
far from it, it studies them

to further the natural repara- 
tive action. He declared cathar- 
tics to be the medicine most 
difjieult iov individuals to bear 
. . . his mineral remedies 
included alum and several salts 
of lead and copper" (I find no 
mercury). 

"Erasistratos (a grandson of 
Aristotle) appears likewise to 
have had some conception of 
the circulation of the blood 
. . . 'discountenanced blood 
letting and the use of 
cathartic medicine, depending 
upon the ligaturing of the 
limbs, simple if not specific 
remedies, emetics, and enemas, 
with abstinence, to accomplish 
the desired ends. At the same 
time he was a bold surgeon, 
opening the abdomen in case 
of cancer, or abscess of the 
liver or spleen, in order to ap- 
ply remedies. He invented a 
catheter and an instrument for 
extracting teeth. ... He was 
a native of the Island of Keos, 
a place remarkable for its cus- 
tom under which the inhabit- 
ants at the age of sixty put an 
end to their existence by drink- 
ing hemlock." "Rome having 
been for centuries without a 
caste or profession of physi- 
cians, sent an embassy about 
three centuries before the pre- 
sent era to Epidavros to bring 
away the Aesculapius to Rome. 
. . . The Roman people had 
got along without physicians, 
says Pliny, 'for a period of more 
than six undred years,' . . . 
a people, too, which had never 
shown itself slow to adopt all 



with more care than ever, and 
values a few, well tried and 
certain of quality and action, 
as highly as ever. It knows the 
mass of current medicines to 
be inert or worse (by trial), 
unce^rtain of action, and applied 
to human functions of still 
more uncertain action; but it 
seeks to study thoroughly and 
apply scientifically the few real 
medicines or healing agents 
which must be used — quinine 
and digitalis, and opium, iron 
and mercury and iodide of 
potassium, etc., instead of a 
swarm of dubious and varying 
materials. . . . But the new 
school does not feel itself under 
any obligation to give any 
medicine whatever, while a 
generation ago not only could 
few physicians have held their 
practice unless they did, but 
few would have thought it safe 
or scientific. Of course there 
are still many cases where the 
patient or the patient's friends 
must be humored by adminis- 
tering medicine or a/Ze^ec? medi- 
cine where buoyancy of mind 
which is the real curative 
agent can only be created by 
making him wait hopefully for 
the expected action of medi- 
cine; and some physicians still 
can not unlearn their old train- 
ing. But the change is great. 
The modern treatment of dis- 
ease relies very greatly on the 
old so-called natural methods, 
diet and exercise, bathing and 
massage — in otherwords, giving 
the natural forces the fullest 
scope by easy and thorough 



9 



useful arts, and even welcomed nutrition, increased flow of 
the medical art with avidity blood, and removal of obstruc- 



until, after a fair experience, 
there was found ample reason 
to condemn it." — Wilder. 



tions to the secretory systems 
or the circulation in the 
tissues. One notable example 
is typhoid fever. At the outset 
of the 19th century it was 
treated with Remedies' of the 
extremest violence — bleeding 
and blistering, vomiting and 
purging,and the administration 
of antimony and mercury and 
plenty of other heroic remedies. 
Now the patient is bathed and 
nursed and carefuly tended, 
but rarely given medicine. This 
is the result partly of the re- 
markable experiments of the 
Paris and Vienna schools into 
the action of drugs, which have 
shaken the stoughtest faiths; 
and partly of the constant and 
reproachful object lesson of 
homoeopathy. No 'regular' 
' physician would ever admit 
that the homoeopathic prepara- 
tions, 'infinitesimals,' could do 
any good as direct curative 
agents; and yet it was per- 
fectly certain that homoeopaths 
lost no more of their patients 
than others. There was but one 
conclusion to draw — that most 
drugs had no effect whatever 
on the diseases for which they 
were administered." — William 
Osier, late of Johns Hopkins 
Medical School, now of Ox- 
ford, Eng. 

Nor is the scheme for a National Health Department new; 
in all its essential features, it is also borrowed from Pagan 
Rome. "Under Julius Csesar, medical men residing in Rome 
had received the honors and privileges of citizenship. Octavianus 
Augustus exempted them from taxation. Nero added to their 



10 

importance. There were archiatri populares, or chief physicians, 
in the different wards of the city, and archiatri palatini or phy- 
sicians of the Imperial palace. These, in time assumed and ex- 
ercised a censorship and authority over their fellow practitioners, 
checking innovation, and discouraging all who were not in strict 
accordance to their pretentions. . . . The institution of 
iatreia or public dispensaries, which had been peculiar to the 
Grecian commonwealth and Egypt, became general in the Em- 
pire. There were official physicians everywhere, supported from 
the treasury. The Gallic cities had established this practice at 
an early period, and doctors employed artifices similar to those 
of other politicians to obtain these lucrative positions. . . . 
Even the artisans sought to attach to their guilds or collegia 
poor practitioners who would be satisfied with very moderate 
fees. Rome abounded also with druggists and apothecaries who 
sold advice as well as medicines, and even lodged patients. 
A rescript fixed the number of public physicians which 
the cities of the highest, second and lowest classes might not 
exceed. 

The physicians were generally from Greece and Egypt. They 
were often vain and arrogant; those at Rome greatly scandal- 
izing their patrons, by holding them in contempt as ignorant 
barbarians and clodhoppers. . . . We read of specialists, ocu- 
lists, aurists, dentists, etc., and medical women who were em- 
ployed for the diseases of women- and children. . . . Avarice 
'according to Pliny, was the leading characteristic of the Roman 
practitioners of medicine. So great were their gains that artisans, 
such as boot-makers, carpenters, butchers, tanners, and even 
grave diggers entered the profession. . . . Galen describes 
them as charlatans, boorish in manners and contemptible for 
their ignorance. . . . The arciatri held a sort of predom- 
inance over the commonality of physicians, and there were 
medical societies or guilds that assumed the authority to ex- 
amine candidates desirous to engage in the practice of medicine. 
All the same, ignorance was in the foreground, and with the 
support oi their guilds in case of prosecution (so malpractice 
insurance is not new), the laws to punish ignorant or unscrupu- 
lous practitioners were incompetent. ... A legend was 
related that St. Hilarious (a very common Roman saint of this 
day as well) overcame the Aesculapian Serpent at Epidavros. 
By this we may understand the subversion of the Asklepiads, 
with their worship and professional labors. 

"The Persian dominion now became the place of refuge for 
men of learning. The deciples of Nestorious, outlawed and per- 
secuted by the dominant Catholic authorities at Constantinople, 



11 

found homes and protection under the blacksmith's apron. 
Persia and Alexandria became the refuge of men of learning. 
Apollo and Aesculapius were dethroned; the Asklepiad, Dog- 
matist, Empiricist, and other sectaries passed into oblivion. 
Only Galen remained as the chief luminary of the long night 
that now hung its black curtain over the medical world." — 
Wilder, ''VViiile medical instruction flourished in the countries 
subject to the Moorish princes, and especially in Spain, igno- 
rance possessed the Christian States of the West." — Dunglison- 
Wilder. 

This insidious and devilish use of medicine, to the enriching 
of the Papacy and the enhancing of its temporal power, is per- 
fectly consistent with the more open, bloody, inhuman policy, 
which through the Dark and Middle ages shamed even the Pagan 
who held the torch of learning and science, while the Pope ex- 
pounded the teaching of the meek and lowly Nazarine, wading 
through blood to evangelize the world. "During the earlier 
centuries of the present era the care and treatment of the sick 
were committed to Monks, priests and individuals of reputed 
spiritual powers. In this way the charge of the sick continued 
for a long period in the hands of religious men exclusively. 
When orders of Monks were instituted, the Benedictines became 
the principal surgeons and therapeutists." — Wilder. Several 
of the Popes were physicians. ''After this period the purpose 
sprung up to dissever the practice of medicine and surgery from 
the religious profession. The bishops and arch-deacons were 
forbidden in the next century to prescribe for the sick; but the 
lower clergy were only restricted from surgery. . . . Many 
notable ecclesiastics were eminent as practitioners; among them 
Thieddig of Prague, Hugo of St. Denis, John Arundale, and the 
famous Peter Abelard. Medicine assumed a more imposing 
attitude (greater imposition)," says Dunglison, ''when the Bene- 
dictine Monks turned a more particular attention to it. In this 
period the modern drama had its birth. Priests and Monks 
taking the parts, acted in the chapels the various scenes and 
events recorded in the New Testament. Here Dante drew the 
inspiration for his Divine Comedy. The secret worship of the 
ancient world was dramatic, and from the Bacchic religion the 
theatre had its beginning. The church in like manner gave the 
modern theatre its inception. Nicholas V, the son of a physi- 
cian, and himself learned in medicine and other knowledge, was 
the Pontiff at Rome. Under him the Roman Court was thronged 
by men of letters, and the Vatican Library was founded. 

At his instance there were more than 5,000 ancient manuscripts 
collected, and the greater part of the works of the Greek authors 



12 

were translated into Latin. Evolving into the modern cycle 
when the countries of Europe were governed by Kings and Lords, 
both spiritual and temporal, who had adopted the methods of 
modern diplomacy, esteeming treachery as sagacity, and esteem- 
ing honor as nothing. When a breach with former notions and 
modes of thinking takes place, the neophytes are often vigorous 
in denouncing, with little or no discrimination, what had been 
believed. 

Thus, in earlier centuries, the learning of the East was denom- 
inated magic, and the term made opprobrious, while those who 
cultivated the knowledge were stigmatized as sorcerers. The 
Albigeois, Waldenses and early reformers in religion were alike 
so denounced. A person or sentiment made odious is half 
overcome. The pursuit of knowledge was thus transformed 
from wisdom-craft to witchcraft and denominated the ''black 
art." In a similar temper the leaders of the Renascence dis- 
carded the medical literature of the Middle Ages as barbarism, 
and scouted the writings of the Arabians as profane, if not 
actually worse. In Spain, where the -Christian and Moslem 
faiths had been in immediate collision, the death penalty, under 
religious auspices, was sometimes inflict-ed upon such as studied 
them. Eustachi ''was celebrated for his observations of the 
internal ear, the tube which bears his name, the anatomy of the 
teeth, and for his investigations of the intimate structure of the 
organs. He employed lenses to assist him in his work. He had 
completed a series of anatomical engravings in 1552, but was 
unable to publish them. The facts, however, were so impor- 
tant that Lauth remarked that, if he had succeeded in giving 
them to the world, anatomy would have attained in the six- 
teenth century all the perfection of two hundred years later. 
Eustachi fell under the displeasure of the authorities, and his 
works were placed in the Papal library, leaving others to make 
his discoveries anew. "Surgery in the sixteenth century," says 
Dr. Charles Creighton, ''recovered much of the dexterity and 
resource that had distinguished it in the last days oi antiquity. 
The earlier modes of treating strictures of the urethra were 
tried; plastic operations were once more done with something 
like the skill of Brahmanical and jclassic times." The action 
with Eustachi is consonant with the attitude of the church, 
the infallible church, through all her history, in which she has 
been able to dominate the temporal power. Copernicus, Bruno, 
Savonarola, Galileo, Keppler, Harvey, and Columbus are but 
individual historical proofs. Thus, her medical arm, first by 
the inquisition and ''Index of Prohibited Reading," and, when 
public sentiment would no longer tolerate that, then proscrip-

tion bound the medical mind to the purpose of ecclesiastical 
domination; and this is the power that comes with Presidential 
endorsement for a status in the Government, "untrammeled in 
the exercise of authority," over men who once were free. 

Microscopic Anatomy bitterly assailed as "adverse to the true 
interests of medical practice," discovered in the seventeenth cen- 
tury, the much chased germ of today. It is a curious, if not a very 
suggestive fact that mineral medicines were introduced by the 
Roman Church in the fifteenth century; in the sixteenth cen- 
tury she uses her utmost endeavor to stay the tide of scientific 
discovery in every form of punishment known to her, and for 
the last 200 years at least, there has been a more or less ''con- 
tinuous decrease in the mean duration of human life." It is 
now sought to account for this in our manner of living, and our 
luxury, but Dr. Benjamin Rush, a signer of the Declaration of 
American Independence, arises to remark, "we have succeeded 
in multiplying diseases. We have done more, we have added to 
their mortality." And Dr. Rush, stands a bronze sarcasm, in 
front of the Navy hospital in Washington. ''The flap-amputa- 
tion which the (Ancient) Roman surgeons practiced, was again 
introduced by Lowdham of Oxford, in 1679. Dr. Richard Mead, 
principalmedical man of Londonandattendantphysician to Queen 
Anne, said, 'It is very evident, that all other means of improving 
medicine have been found ineffectual by the stand it was at for 
2,000 years; and that since mathematicians have set themselves 
to the study of it, men already begin to talk so intelligently 
and comprehensively, even about abstruse matters, that it is to 
be hoped that mathematical learning will be the distinguishing 
mark of a physician and a quack." 

"Frederick Hoffman, physician to Charles VI and Frederick of 
Prussia, and a professor at Halle 'for almost fifty years;' of a 
family that had been engaged in medicine for two hundred years 
promulgated the maxim, 'Avoid medicine and physicians if you 
value your health,' Through his recommendation, many of the 
mineral springs in Germany came into repute as health resorts. 
Indeed, all reform in the profession of medicine has come, and 
probably it must always be introduced, from outside of its 
ranks." — Wilder. "We must not forget what was emphasized 
by Dr. Lyman Abbot in a recent address to the young women at 
Wellesley College: 'I want to remJnd you of what Mr. Gladstone 
said — that all the great movements for the development of the 
race have sprung from the common people. It was so with 
Wesleyanism, so with Puritanism, and it was so with Democ- 
racy. It was so with the great Lutheran reformation, and it 
was so also with Christianity." — Locke.

''Before the 18th century surgery had been an art of low re- 
pute. The Council of Tours had denounced it as unworthy of 
a priest and beneath the notice of a scholar. True surgeon as 
he was, John Hunter regarded operations as the acknowledg- 
ment of imperfect skill in the art of healing. 

"He compared them to 'the acts of the armed' savage, who 
attempts to get that by force which a civilized man would get 
by stratagem." "In Germany, as in America, there arose in the 
earlier years of the nineteenth century a movement among the 
less scholarly but more numerous grade of physicians to sup- 
press rival modes of practice by arbitrary means." 

We would not minimize the laurels of the great names which 
evolved medical theories, and whose labors discovered to us 
more in detail, anatomy, and the relation and functioning of the 
human economy. Nor those explorations, discoveries, and classi- 
fications which have made Chemistry a science. Yet out of one 
we have produced a system of healing, which now its adherents 
acknowledge, inferior to the Pagan system of the time of the 
coming of Christ, and from chemistry, almost excluding Botany 
from the medical curriculum, is eliminated the medical depend- 
ence of the system to which we are advised to return. Dr. 
Meltzer aptly says: "All the strides made in auxiliary sciences, 
all the brilliant results brought to light by pathology, bacteriol- 
ogy, and animal experimentation, attain their practical impor- 
tance only by their applicability to the sick human being. Who 
is going to study this? Who is going to be such an exponent of 
the science of medicine? Gentlemen, this country is greatly in 
need of such exponents." 

Dr. Rush also said: "Those physicians generally become the 
most eminent in their profession who soonest emancipate them- 
selves from the tyranny of the schools of physic." More com'- 
prehensive and confirmatory was the assertion in Lacon: "Physi- 
cians have been tinkering the human constitution for about two 
thousand years to cure diseases; and the result of all their dis- 
coveries is, that brimstone and mercury are the only two 
specifics." And they work wholly on the homoeopathic theory. 

"Diseases remain what they were before." "It can not be denied 
that the practice of medicine, as it existed at the beginning of 
the century, was richly deserving of the sweeping denunciations 
which the leading practitioners so unqualifiedly bestowed. The 
theories had been changed and continued to he changed, yet 
under them all, with little exception, the same reprehensible 
procedures (mercury and other disease producing medicines) 
were maintained as the regular or orthodox system that might 
not be bettered till the century had approached its noon (then 



15 

with the germ theory sprung anew by Pasteur mercury came in 
again). All this time it was insisted that they were scientific, 
and every deviation from them was stigmatized as quackery 
and empiricism." Dr. Gregory said: "Upon no subjeet have the 
wild spirit and eccentric disposition of the imagination been 
more widely displayed than in the history of medicine." The 
effort is now made to endow the licensed practitioner of the 
''regular" school with the power, authority, and exclusive sanc- 
tity which the clergy of the Sixteenth Century appropriated 
through political power. ''But the crudities, the credulities, the 
absurdities current in the Nineteenth Century and legitimatized 
as scientific and orthodox, are little further removed from de- 
structive criticism than their predecessors." — Wilder. "When 
sciolism, the partial knowing, is proclaimed dogmatically and 
penal laws, as well as social proscription, are brought into 
requisition to enforce it as supreme authority it becomes a 
degenerate despotism utterly repugnant to an enlightened 
civilization." 

"The physiology and constitution of the brain were in like 
manner described by Franz Joseph Call, of Vienna. His works 
upon the nervous system passed through several editions and 
were highly esteemed. In 1802 the Government of Austria, at 
the instance of the clergy, forbade the teaching of his peculiar 
doctrine as dangerous to religion.*' 

"The obstetric art . . . was universally regarded from 
earliest history as the province of women only. The records in 
the Bible, the inscriptions and other monumental evidence 
obtained by archaeologists, the literature which has been pre- 
served from ancient periods, are conclusive in this matter. The 
midwife was a woman who was everywhere held in honor. They 
feared God, 'says the author of the book of Exodus,' and He 
caused their households to prosper. The philosopher Sokrates, 
narrates, with complacency, that he was the son of a midwife, 
and makes her art an illustration of his method of teaching. 
Pliny speaks of women who were physicians as being of the 
nobility. . . . The employment of men for this office is one 
of the modern innovations. The 'wise woman' has been sup- 
planted in this and many other countries, and the birth of the 
child has evolved from a natural process to a surgical operation. 
The diseases of women, however, were under no such restriction. 
Hippokrates, Galen, Aretaeos, discourse of metritis, induration, 
displacements, menstrual irregularities, leucorrhoea, ulcerations 
of the womb, etc., and Aetios mentions the speculum, sponge 
tent, sound, caustics for ulcers, dilation of the cervix uteri, 
injections, hip-baths, and other appliances. Indeed, the remark 



16 

of Aristotle was abundantly warranted in this matter, as well as 
generally, that 'probably all art and all knowledge have been 
often fully explored and again forgotten.' Dr. James Marion 
Sims, a physician of Montgomery, Alabama, made his name 
memorable for his new inventions and procedures. Coming to 
New York in 1853, he endeavored to bring to the attention of 
his professional brethren what he had accomplished in opera- 
tive surgery for lacerations and other injuries of the female 
organism. 

''The umpires of professional opinion, to whom he communi- 
cated his discoveries, received him coldly. From Nazareth or 
a Nazarene would nothing good be recognized. Sims then 
turned to others whom they were superciliously ignoring. Dr. 
Elijah Whitney, a graduate of Union College, with 'certain hon- 
orable women,' and a few others, reached out to him the fraternal 
hand, and opened the way for him to make his discoveries known 
to the public, and to those who had need of them. In this way 
he was enabled to open the Women's Hospital of the City of 
New York. He and his fellow-laborers, thus introduced a new 
era into that department of surgery. While, however, his pro- 
cedures were adopted by those who had before scouted them, he 
himself encountered some of the usual experiences of apostles 
and innovators. He was supplanted and superseded by those 
who had followed in his footsteps, and were thereby able to 
secure for themselves many of his honors. Dr. Sims long remem- 
bered these, his first friends in New York, for their services so 
vital to his success. He responded afterward, by a declaration 
against the Code of Medical Ethics, from which he and they 
were alike sufferers. W^hen he became President of the Amer- 
ican Medical Association, at the time of the Centennial Exhibition 
in 1876, he took occasion in his address to pronounce against it 
as effete and moribund, and advised to let it die." It, however, 
lived 27 years longer, and is only surrendered to be supplanted 
if possible, bv the National Health Department or Bureau, which 
in another way will accomplish all and more than the old code 
could. 

"During the Nineteenth Century Homoeopathy has made very 
encouraging progress among the more intelligent classes of 
society. From being scoffed and derided as a visionary practice, 
'the quackery of the drawing-room,' as distinguished from the 
Botanic practice affected by the 'plain people,' it has become 
recognized in scientific circles as possessing actual value. True, 
it has been nowhere inaugurated like its great rival, with the 
rank and official standing of a National Established Church of 
Medicine; and it is not able, therefore, to work hand and glove 



17 

in any country with the State Religion, so that it may, by harsh 
and vindictive measures, strive to weed out dissent. Those 
accordingly, who regard such authority as indicating the true 
standard, and its exercise as proper and professional, will con- 
tinue still to regard Homoeopathy as not successful. 

It little matters with such persons whether that which is 
uppermost be intrinsically right or wrong. . . . Although 
Homoeopathy has been proscribed and prohibited by the Civil 
Power in countries of Europe, and excluded from fraternal 
recognition by the self -constituted umpires of medical sentiment, 
because its practitioners do not conform to the Established 
Dogma of Regularity, they may derive comfort and assurance 
from the observation made by Mr. Herbert Spencer, that the 
effect produced by arbitrary measures usually turns out to be 
exactly opposite to what was intended. 

''It is not so very long since there were penal laws in many of 
the American States making the practice of medicine outside 
the prescribed line a misdemeanor, punishable by fine and im- 
prisonment. Persecutions followed that were not unworthy of 
an Alva or a De Montfort. Then was made an appeal to the 
people, and with the dissemination of liberal opinions the obnox- 
ious statutes were everywhere abrogated, the circle of movement 
has been again described, and the former experience is repeated. 

''Canada and England set the example for Americans. But 
Reformed Medicine, Homoeopathy, and other advanced move- 
ments have obtained a foothold in the Western Hemisphere from 
which they can not be dislodged, except their own supporters 
abandon the field." 

The persecuting, proscribing disposition of the "regular" 
adherents of medicine and their official body, the American 
Medical Association, and their assumption of superiority, regu- 
larity, and infallibility are so true to its mother, the Roman 
Catholic Church, that the relationship would be easily estab- 
lished independent of historical facts. Even the introduction 
of the water-bath as a remedial agent was fought by the medical 
authorities of Austria, where the Pope practically rules the state. 
Bathing, which this same school interest now recommends as 
hygienic and curative, a part of their "New School." 

"Dr. Bastian, professor of pathology in the London University,, 
gave an explanation of the existence of micro-organisms (the 
germ theory) that appears perfectly tenable. They are not 
generated in the body he asserts till it has become already dis- 
organized; certainly no intelligent person would suppose that 
the worms that devour a putrefying carcass were the cause of 
the creature's death. They belong solely to the process of decay,.

contributing to the promotion of corporeal disintegration. 
These arguments were met by new hypotheses, resembling make 
shifts by which to save a favorite theory. It was conceded that 
several varieties of bacteria were healthful, and that even the 
'comma bacillus' of Asiatic cholera was harmless till age and 
further development converted it into a source of infection. This 
is virtually conceding that the germ-theory has no subtantial 
ground on which to stand." 

"In 1842 Dr. Joseph Rodes Buchanan, a physician of Louis- 
ville, in Kentucky, made public a theory of cerebral physiology, 
unique in character, yet perfectly consistent in detail, based 
upon investigations and speculations extending over a period of 
seven years. . . . He attempted to present the results of 
his investigations to the American Medical Association, but Dr. 
Samuel D. Gross, of Philadelphia, advised him to seek his 
audience outside of the medical profession. The Association 
would never take any notice of any discovery that he might 
make or demonstrate, because its members were precluded by 
their caste. They were governed by it, and he was not. This 
is the principal, and perhaps the only, reason why few medical 
men outside the ethical cordon become recognized in scientific 
circles, even when their merits are of the highest order. It is 
the price which a sincere and conscientious man must pay for 
moral independence. In order to obtain a friendly, or even a 
fair hearing for a new doctrine, it is necessary to rear a new 
generation." 

"Miss Florence Nightingale the World famous nurse said: 'I 
have seen smallpox growing up in first specimen, when it could 
not, by any possibility have been caught. Nay, more; I have 
seen diseases begin, grow up, and pass into another.' "Thus, the 
doctor who believes in evolution, must concede it to his germ- 
theory. Then, with a specific serum for a specific germ, he wmH 
often find the germ has evoluted and his serum hasn't, and he 
is treating for a germ that has gone out of style and he didn't 
know^ it. 

"Thomas Jefferson had the fullest warrant for his sweeping 
utterance: 'I believe we may safely affirm that the inexperienced 
and presumptuous herd of medical tyros let loose upon the 
world destroys more lives than all the Robin Hoods, Cartouches, 
and Macheaths do in a century. I hope and believe' said he, 
^that it is from this side of the Atlantic that Europe, which has 
taught us so many useful things, will be led into sound princi- 
ples in this branch of science, the most important of all, to 
which we commit the care of our health and life.' Indeed, it has 
been the general belief and conviction from the times of Hip- 



19 

pokrates, Chrysippus, and Pliny till the present, that the 
remedies which are the most certain to accomplish the purpose 
for which they are intended, as well as to leave no disease niter 
them — a morbid condition possibly worse than the one for 
which they had been administered — are from the vegetable 
kingdom." 

Rafinesque said: ''Several ancient nations, such as the Gre- 
cians, Romans, Hindus, Chinese, etc., considered Medical Botany 
as equivalent to both botanical and medical knowledge." — 
Medical Flora. 

''But theorists (regulars) are often illiberal, intolerant, proud, 
and conceited; they follow a peculiar Theory and Mode of Prac- 
tice with little deviation, employing but few vegetable remedies, 
and enlisting under the bannerof aTeacher orSect." — Rafinesque. 
"It is common now to deny that this class of practitioners is .". 
sect. Its members style themselves 'the medical profession' as 
the Roman Christians (?) denominate their ecclesiastical cor- 
poration 'the church,' meaning thereby to exclude others from 
that distinction. The animus is the same in both cases; Rafi- 
nesque's description holds good, nevertheless, substantially.'' 
" Wooster Beach was convinced that 'the present practice ol 
physic and surgery (1840), so far from being founded on correct 
principles, was actually a curse to society,' and believed that 
better remedies existed for diseases than the lancet, mercury, and 
other drugs in common use." "And it was given him to make 
war with the saints, and to overcome them; and all that dwell 
upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written 
in the book of life. . . . And he caused all, both small and 
great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their 
right hand or on their foreheads — and that no mail might buy 
or sell, save he that had the Mark of the Beast, or the number 
of his name.'^ — Rev. XI IL 

"After the space of so many hundred years' experience, 7iot 
one single medicine has been detected that has the least force 
directly to prevent, resist, and expel a continued fever. Should 
any, by a more sedulous observation, pretend to make the least 
step toward the discovery of any such remedies, their iiatred 
and envy would swell agunst him as a legion of devils against 
virtue. The whole society will dart their malice against him 
with all the calumnies imaginable, without stickling at anything 
that would destroy him root and branch. For he who professes 
to be a reformer of the art of physic must resolve to run the hazard 
of the martyrdom of his reputation, life, ar^d estate. '' — Dr. William 
Harvey, discoverer of the circulation of the blood. 

"In Episcopal religions, the Bishop gives the formula and 



20 

the minister who disputes or practically differs is disrobed; so 
the only governing body in medicine in this country is the 
American Medical Association, the representative organ of the 
whole regular profession." — Committee of the Medical Society 
in the District of Columbia. ''This was confidently regarded as 
the opportunity to put this prelatic authority in force. Com- 
pared to that consideration the health and welfare of the soldiers 
(civil war) made but a subordinate matter and were so treated. 
It was confidently declared that 'exclusion from positions in the 
Army would kill off eclecticism and every species of quackery.' " 
Experienced men of other than the ''regular" school were re- 
jected. "In Connecticut several Eclectic physicians offered their 
services to the Governor and were accepted by him. The Ex- 
amining Board rejected them, and a special term was held of 
the Medical Department of Yale College, at which a class was 
hastily graduated to fill the positions." "As might be expected, 
flagrant inefficiency as well as insufficiency characterized this 
branch of the military service. In 1862, when the war was 
prosecuted more actively, incompetency and neglect of duty be- 
came notorious. The wounded in battle were left uncared for 
sometimes for two and even three days. There was often more 
danger incurred from the surgeon than from the bullets of the 
foe. 

The attention of Congress was directed to the exigency and 
the Medical Department of the Army reorganized. A new 
Surgeon-General, Dr. William A. Hammond, was appointed at 
the desire of General McClellan. ... A prodigious excite- 
ment was created throughout medical circles by an order of the 
Surgeon-General, issued on the fourth of May, in 1863. Dr. Ham- 
mond, observing from the reports of his subordinates that the 
use of mercury had, in innumerable cases, been attended by 
most baleful results, and remarking that the diseases prevalent 
in the Army might as well be treated without antimony as 
therewith, directed that those drugs should in future be struck 
from the supply table and that no further requisitions for them 
should be approved. The order was regarded by his professional 
associates as a virtual apostasy from medical orthodoxy and a 
veritable scuttling of the ship in which they had sailed for 
three centuries following the days of Carpi and Basil Valentine 
(a Benedictine Monk). 

Their indignation was not concealed. They did not, how- 
ever, depend simply upon a defense of their favorite drugs, but 
resorted like the masters of the exorcised Pythonic maiden 
( Acts of the Apostles, XVI, 19-21), to a more insidious mode 
of attack. They plead usage; that Dr. Hammond had been 



21 

appointed over colleagues who ranked above him. "Dr. Ham- 
mond had exhibited a remarkable fitness for his position. He 
possessed superior administrative ability and capacity tor or- 
ganizing and executing his plans for the required improvement 
of the medical service. . . . All this, however, counted for 
little with his adversaries, so long as he had ventured to pass 
beyond the cordon that circumscribed the medical arena. Med- 
ical Societies adopted resolutions denouncing him, and an 
abortive attempt was made to procure his condemnation at the 
annual meeting of the American Medical ^Association. Finally, 
however, charges were instituted against him of malfeasance 
and dishonest practices. A court-martial was held and he was 
dismissed from office in May, 1864. The belief, nevertheless 
was very generally entertained, that this entire proceeding was 
corrupt and directed by personal malice, and with no adequate 
ground for the accusations. Several years later the sentence 
was reversed, and Dr. Hammond indemnified. Under the new 
Surgeon General, the famous 'Order No. VI' was speedily re- 
voked, and the interdicted drugs again included in the medical 
supplies for the Army. It was also directed that henceforth 
only graduated physicians from the 'regular medical colleges,' 
should be accepted as surgeons in the military service." That 
order is still in force, the United States has become a member 
of the American Medical Association, is a part of the Roman 
Catholic priesthood, so far as her efforts can make her one, and 
through this membership in the American Medical Association 
and her adoption of the Catholic priesthood, she diverts her 
appropriations to the Roman Catholic Church, builds buildings 
for her, as they have assisted to build Providence Hospital 
through this doctor evasion, and as they have built for her on 
the Isthmus. 

"The cultured society of an intelligent nation shall yet seek 
and find the Faculty of Universal Medicine by and through a 
wise legislature, equal laws, equal rights, equal privileges, equal 
liberties, and last but not least, equal duties. Great men have 
been glorious exceptions to the rules of bigotry, custom, and 
prejudice, even in orthodox Physic." — Dr. Wm. Hitchman. 

"It is undeniably true, that the Practice of Medicine and the 
art of healing have advanced only by the innovations of those 
who were looked upon with extremest disfavor by members of 
the regular schools. Truth is mighty and will prevail. God 
forbid that we of Washington should attempt to stay its prog- 
ress. ... In our day physicians of the bluest blood and 
the highest attainments are guilty of poisoning the springs of life. 

The contents of the drug store are perhaps more dangerous 



22 

to the well-being of the race than those of the saloon. Dope 
fiends are thus created by the thousand. Morphine powders 
administered to parents bring forth their natural fruit even to 
the third and fourth generation of descendants. The degenerates 
thus created, form an ever-increasing army, and threaten by 
their weakness and criminality, the very existence of civiliza- 
tion itself." — Gov. Rogers, Washington. 

But there is another view of this Church-Medical priesthood, 
and its proposed further intrenchment in the State. 

Treason to the Almighty in professed Christians or a pro- 
fessedly Christian State, as God taught Moses of Old, for Israel; 
as Christ taught through his disciples in the new dispensation 
so-called, stands the blackest crime described in the Bible. 
Modeled after it, is as treason to the State, the blackest crime 
to the State. 

The first treason of creation was that of Adam; induced 
through selfishness, and justified through sophistry; the sophis- 
try of the wily venomous serpent; still with us. Moses contended 
against it with the chosen people who lost their first estate 
through it, and the first treason of the Christian era, like the 
national apostasy of the Jews, was among the very elect, the 
Apostles themselves. ''Jesus answered them. Have not /chosen 
you twelve, and one of you is a devil? He spake of Judas Is- 
cariot the son of Simon; for he it was that should betray him; 
being one of the twelve." — John 6, 70-71. 

The rejection by the Jews of Jesus Christ, did not divest him 
of his kingdom, but being of the very essence of treason to 
the king, did of its very self, divest them of a national in- 
heritance. 

"For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and 
have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the 
Holy Ghost, and have tasted the good word of God, and the 
powers of the world to come, if they shall fall away, to renew 
them agaiyi unto repentance, seeing they crucify to themselves 
the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame." — Hebrews 
6, 4-6. 

"Ye therefore, beloved (nation), seeing ye know these things 
before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of 
the wicked, fall (as did the Jews) from vour own steadfastness.'' 
—II Peter, 3-17. 

"He that saith, I know Him (In God We Trust'), and keepeth 
not His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him." — 
I John, 2-4- 

"He that saith he abideth in Him (In God We Trust) ought 
so to icalk, even as He walked." — I John, 2-6.

"Little children, it is the last time (the end of time); and as 
ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there 
ma)ii) antichrists; wherebv we know it is the last time." — 1 John^ 
2-18. 

"Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? 
He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. Whoso- 
ever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father; he that 
acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also." — / John, 2:22-23, 

"Let no man deceive you by any means; for that day shall not 
come, except there come a falling away first (true of us Nation- 
ally and spiritually), and that man of sin be revealed, the son 
of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all 
that is called God; or that is worshipped; so that he as God 
sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself (holding out) that 
he is God (Vicar of Christ on earth). Remember ye not, that, 
when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye 
know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time 
(of destruction). For the mystery of iniquity doth already 
work: only he who now letteth will let, until he (antichrist) be 
taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, 
whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and 
shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, 
whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and 
signs and lying wonders. And with all deceivableness of un- 
righteousness in them that perish; because they received not 
the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this 
cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should 
believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believe not 
the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness." — // Thessa- 
lonians, 2, 3-12. 

"Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering 
(for he is faithful that promised); for if we sin luilfully after 
that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth 
no more sacrifice {nationsiWy) for sins, Buta certain fearful looking 
for of judgment and firey indignation which shall devour the 
adversaries. He that despised Moses law died without mercy 
under two or three witnesses. Of how much sorer punishment, 
suppose ye, shall he (or the nation) be thought worthy, who 
hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the 
blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy 
thing, and hath done despite unto the spirit of Grace? For we 
know him that hath said. Vengeance belongeth to me, I will 
recompense saitTi the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge 
his people. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the 
living God.''— Hebrews, 10, 23-32.

''But there were false prophets also among the people, even 
as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall 
bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought 
them, and bring upon themselves svv^ift destruction. And many 
shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way 
of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness 
shall they with feigned words (sophistry) make merchandise of 
you; (nationally) whose judgment now of a long time lingereth 
not, and their damnation slumbereth not. For if God spared 
not the angels that sinned, (treason) but cast them down to hell, 
and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto 
judgment; and spared notthe old world, but saved Noah the eighth 
person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon 
the world of the ungodly; And turning the cities of Sodom and 
Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, mak- 
ing them an ensample unto those that after should (nationally) 
live ungodly; And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy con- 
versation of the wicked: . . . The Lord knoweth how to 
deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust 
unto the day of judgment to be punished: But chiefly them 
that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise 
government. Presumptuous are they, self-willed, they are not 
afraid to speak evil of dignities (of Heaven). Whereas angels, 
which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusa- 
tion against them before the Lord. But these are natural brute 
beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things 
they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own 
corruption: And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as 
they count it pleasure to riot in the daytime. Spots they are 
and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings 
while they feast with you; having eyes full of adultery, and they 
can not cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls; an heart they 
have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children: 
Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, follow- 
ing the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages 
of unrighteousness; These are wells without water, clouds that 
are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is 
reserved forever. For when they speak great swelling words of 
vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much 
wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live 
in error. While they promise them liberty, they themselves are 
the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of 
the same is he brought into bondage. For if after they have 
escaped the pollution of the world through the knowledge of 
the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled 



25 

therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than 
the beginning. For it had been better for them not to have 
known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, 
to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them." — 
2. Peter, 2. 

Egypt for over 400 years had the sons of Israel in bondage. 
In the meantime God sent nine plagues against Egypt for their 
deliverance and without effect. Upon the consummation of 
their deliverance from Egypt they were led in the wilderness 
for 40 years by Moses. The faith of the people was weak, and 
when tried in emergency failed utterly. They cried for water, 
Moses miraculously procured it for them; they demanded 
bread — the heavens rained it down upon them. "The crowning 
event of the exodus was the revelation of the Law on Sinai," 
the birth of the Republic of Israel, whose law should be the 
will of God. ''The new covenant into which they had entered 
with Jehovah was quickly broken by the people. In Moses' 
absence they worshipped a golden calf, and Aaron himself was 
rebuked by the indignant prophet for the readiness with which 
he had yielded to the popular clamor. Directions were now 
given for the construction of a tabernacle in which the priests 
and Moses was henceforth to receive the communings of God. 
Momentous years passed Moses died within sight of the prom- 
ised land and his people entered into its possession. Joshua 
took up the unfinished work, parceled out the territory to the 
tribes and exhorted the people to choose between Jehovah and 
the idols. They willingly declared their readiness to follow the 
pious example of their chief. In the succeeding period, however, 
we are surprised to find no trace of the fulfillment of so fair a 
promise. . . . Disorder and distrust prevailed. Mutual 
jealousies excite fierce conflicts among related clans . . . lust 
and treachery run riot. 

The general darkness is at times illumined by the patriotism 
of heroic women and herculean men, but the light that it spreads 
is fitful and uncertain. What most distresses us in the account 
we have of this evil time is the conduct of those whom we are 
taught to revere as the chosen messengers of Jehovah. Gideon 
after his victory proceeds (as did we after the Spanish war and 
assassination of McKinley) to make a golden idol, which he wor- 
ships (Judg. VIII-27); Jepthah sacrifices his own daughter 
(Judg. XI-35) (as we have sacrificed Puritanism); Sampson mar- 
ries a heathen woman (Judg. XIV-I) (as we have married the 
Papacy), while a Levite, contrary to both the letter and spirit 
of the law, consents to become the priest of an individual 
(Gibbons to Roosevelt), and to superintend the worship of 



26 

images (Judg. XVII-XVIII). To^he question— What had be- 
come or the remembrance of Moses (Lincoln) and his Law in the 
meantime? — we look in vain for a satisfying answer. . . . 
The last of the Judges marks an important epoch in Israel's 
history. . . . Samuel now became the acknowledged leader 
of the people. . . . The sons of Samuel were unworthy to 
succeed their father, and the people clamored for a king. The 
political tendencies of monotheism were republican. Samuel 
resisted their persistent demands to the utmost, but at last 
gave way, and annointed Saul of Benjamin (according to 1 Sam'l 
VIII-IX-X, it would appear that the elevation of Saul was due 
to the general desire of the people for a stronger government). 
. . . A new king was now to be chosen. Samuel selected a 
shepherd boy, David. . . . Through the reign of Solomon 
with the dedication of the temple magnificence of regal display; 
. . . trade flourished, his ships returned laden with the 
treasures of the distant East, and Jerusalem was adorned with 
palaces. But the people were burdened with taxes, the royal 
harem was enlarged beyond all precedent, and the heart of the 
uxorious king was won for foreign gods by the foreign princesses 
whom he had espoused. Hardly had Solomon breathed his last 
when the people rose in open revolt. ... An unholy dis- 
tinction belongs to the reign of Ahab. Having wedded the 
Phoenecian princess Jezebel, he introduced the lascivious wor- 
ship of Baal (the cult of the phallus) into Israel. The bonds of 
the law were loosened,. the service of the Deity was degraded to 
Sensual orgies, and the example of the court corrupted the 
manners of the people. The better and purer spirits reacted 
against the inroads of a foreign worship which outraged alike 
their feelings of piety and patriotism. A more profound con- 
ception of the Divine Being was gradually evolved, and the 
inward and outward struggles of infant prophesy may still be 
traced in the lives of Elijah and Elisha as they were transcribed 
in the Chronicles of the Kings. 

A fruitless siege of three years ended in the capture of the 
Capitol and the complete downfall of the Kingdom of Israel 
(B. C. 721). The ten tribes were settled in distant districts of 
the Assyrian empire, and soon lost among its inhabitants. The 
once mighty people of the N. of Palestine left a lasting monu- 
ment of its greatness in the inspired writings of its noble 
prophets, but of the subsequent fortuyiesoi the scattered tribes 
nothing became known, save to the idle dreamers of a later age. 

For more than a century after her sister Kingdom had been 
swept away Judah continued to brave the storms that threatened 
her own existence. . . . Jerusalem was in ashes, its temple a 



27 

smouldering ruin, and 'the paths of Zion were in mourning.' 
The prophecies of Jeremiah had foretold the calamity which he 
was powerless to avert. . . . The independence or Palestine 
was thus forever lost. A native prince was, indeed, still per- 
mitted to assume the vain shadow of authority, but the policy 
or caprice of the Romans thenceforth appointed or dismissed 
the rulers of the Holy Land." — Felix Adler, of the Committee 
of One Hundred on National Health. ' 

The whole subsequent history of Israel and the Israelite, thus 
far, is but a further confirmation of prophetic utterance. The 
first great National apostasy, of the specially favored people of 
God. The first National treason. 

With the birth of Jesus Christ and a new dispensation, we 
have a new Moses and a new^ Sinai, as if to repeat history, and 
its commands in the sermon on the Mount, that epitome of every 
Divine attribute, and every human right. And its perfect divorce- 
ment from temporal power is announced in that pungent sentence : 
''Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be Caesar's, and 
unto God the things which be God's." Alike they warn and 
command against treason, and show the end of the law to be 
obedience. 

Alike they promise with obedience an inheritance. 

"And it shall be, when the Lord thy God shall have brought 
thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abra- 
ham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly 
cities, which thou buildedst not, . . . and wells digged, which 
thou diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, which thou plantedst 
not; when thou shalt have eaten and be full; Then beware lest 
thou forget the Lord, which brought thee out of the land of 
Egypt, from the house of bondage. Thou shalt fear the Lord 
thy God and serve him, and shall sivear by his name. Ye shall 
not go after other gods, of the gods of the people which are 
round about you." — Deut., VI:10-14- The Papal gods. 
"Think not that I am come to destroy the law or the prophets; 
I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill." — Matt., V, 5-17. 

"Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth." 
"Now the man Moses was very meek, above all men which were 
upon the face of the earth." — Numbers, XIl-3. 

The treason of the professed church of Christ, is the history 
of the Western World through the Dark and Middle Ages. Mar- 
tin Luther on the fourth day of July is the individual protest 
against that treason, the Divine Right of Kings, which we 
echoed Nationally on the 4th day of July, also. 

The United States like Israel acknowledged Almighty God 



28 

and their trust in Him. By coincidence, "The country inhab- 
ited by the people gathered out of the nations," should be 
settled in thirteen distinct States, like it was with Israel; only 
"Joseph should have two portions." "Ye shall i7iherit the land 
according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph shall have two 
portions." — t^zek, XLVll-13. It is a remarkable fact that 
although the Jews had but twelve tribes, the portion tailing to 
Ephraim and Manasseh, children of Joseph, being divided, made 
them a confederacy of thirteen states or tribes. It is also just as 
remarkable a fact, that in the beginning we had but twelve 
States; and William Penn held the charter of Pennsylvania for 
twenty years before he obtained that of Delaware, and then we 
had thirteen States also. But the coincidence in the boundaries 
of the thirteen States of restored Israel with those of the old 
thirteen United States, is still more remarkable. The prophet 
gives the eastern border of each tribe to be the eastern sea, and 
the western border of each tribe to be the great western sea. — 
Ezek., XLVIL 

"Wilson, and perhaps Bancroft, affirm, that the original 
charters of the thirteen United States called for the x\tlantic or 
eastern ocean for their eastern boundary, and the Pacific or the 
great western ocean for their western boundary, in almost so 
many words." — Pitts. 

In the promised nationality, foreigners were to be allowed a 
place to dwell, enjoy their homes and the pursuit of happiness, 
in common with the citizens of the country. . , . "And it 
shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inherit- 
ance unto you, and to the strangers that sojourn among you, 
which shall beget children among you; (make homes) and they 
shall be unto you as born in the country among the children of 
Israel: (by substitution of naturalization for circumcism) they 
shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel. And 
... in what tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give 
him his inheritance, saith the Lord God.''— Ezek., XLVII, 22-23. 

"Their nobles shall be of themselves, and their governor shall 
proceed from the midst of them." — Jer., XXX-21. The people 
should be "gathered together, and appoint themselves one 
head." — Hosea, 1-11. "I will restore thy judges as at the 
first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning:" — Isa., 1-26. 

The "waiting isles" of Isaiah, are prophecy of our great 
country and its occupation by emigrants. "Surely, the isles 
shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring my 
sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, unto the name 
of the Lord thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel." Diodorus 
Siculus, a most reliable historian of the Sugustin age, says that 



29 

*the term isles,' in his time, primarily meant undiscovered lands 
supposed to exist in the Atlantic Ocean. ''The word 'Tarshish,' 
according to Strabo, refers to Tartessus, formerly a seaport city 
of that name, situated on the site where Cadiz now stands, in 
Old Spain, near the pillars of Hercules. And Mr. Benson, per- 
haps the most accurate commentator on the ancient geography 
of the Scriptures, says that 'this opinion is now generally 
adopted by the learned.' With this explanation of terms, let 
us read the passage. 'Surely the undiscovered lands in the 
western sea shall w^ait for me, and the ships of Old Spain shall 
be first to bring my sons from far, their silver and their gold 
with them. The subtleties of Scriptural prophecies, admit of 
double fulfilment, and as Tarshish is assigned to more than one 
country, we may have in a further fulfilment, that under a new 
condition it indicates still another Tarshish. 

The Abraham of Old Israel, may well be photographed in 
Washington. Moses led the children of Israel from bondage to 
the promised land, and died in the mountain top, within its 
sight, but unable to confirm them in their new inheritance. Lin- 
coln led us from bondage and apostasy, and fell on the mountain 
top of immortal fame, in sight of a "Great Purpose," for his 
countrymen, and "all classes and conditions of mankind." 

What interest has the United States in prophecies of the Old 
and New Testament? Many of these are our history as we have 
written it all unconscious that we are destined to confirm the 
most important prophecies of the Bible. Because we are to be 
Israel restored, this must of necessity be so. Zechariah 2d, 4th, 
says; ". . . Run, speak to this young man, saying, Jeri/sa/^m 
shall be inhabited as towns without walls for the multitude of 
men and cattle therein." 

And as the Israelites journeyed out of bondage, escaped 
the Egyptians who were overcome in the Red Sea, they came 
"to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for 
they were bitter . . . And the people murmured against 
Moses, saying. What shall we drink? And he cried unto the 
Lord; and the Lord shewed him a tree (prophetic symbol of a 
man or ruler), which when he had cast into the waters, the 
waters were made sweet (a changed condition), there he made 
for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them, 
and said. If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the 
Lord thy God (under this new or renewed allegiance), and wilt 
do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his com- 
mandments, and keep all his statutes, Twill put none of these 
diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians; 
for I am the Lord that healeth thee." — Exodus, 15:23-26. 



30 

The first chapters of Isaiah are reflected in the last chapters 
of Revelation. In Revelation we are Babylon, and by the sev- 
eral prophets we appear as Israel, Judah, Zion, and Jerusalem 
in the restoration anticipate and accomplished. 

"From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no 
soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores; 
they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither molified 
with ointment." — Isa., 1-6. 

"Moreover the Lord saith. Because the daughters of Zion are 
haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, 
walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with 
their feet; Therefore, the Lord will smite with a scab the crown 
of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the Lord will dis- 
cover their secret parts.'' — Isa., 3, 16-17 (Syphilis). 

The serpent figures in the history of the bondage of Israel in 
Egypt through Aaron's rod smiting the waters and land of 
Egypt at the command of God to bring her several plagues. 

"And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did 
so as the Lord had commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod 
before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a serpent. 
Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers; now the 
magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their en- 
chantments. For they cast down every man his rod, and they 
became serpents; but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods." — 
Exo., 7:10-11-12. 

Later in this work I shall attempt to show in detail t is bat- 
tle of subtilties, and to show that we are now in the midst of 
the plagues sent upon the Egyptians just before the overthrow 
of Pharaoh (symbol of the Pope) in the Red Sea. 

"Thou shalt therefore keep the commandments, and the 
statutes, and the judgments, which I command thee this day, to 
do them. . . . And the Lord will take aioay from thee all 
sickness, and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which 
thou knowest, upon thee; but will lay them upon all them that 
hate thee."— Dew^., 7:11-15. 

Upon the theory that the United States is the promised land, 
and we are the chosen people, tlie above and following is pro- 
phetically spoken to us. 

"Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse; A 
blessing if ye obey the commandments of the Lord your God, 
which I command you this day; And a curse, if ye will not obey 
the commandments of the Lord your God, but turn aside out 
of the way which I command you this day, to go after other 
gods, which ye have not known.'' — Pent., 11:26-28. 

"And ve shall overthrow their altars, and break their pillars. 



31 

and burn their groves with fire; and ye shall hew down the 
graven images of their gods, and destroy the names of them out 
of that placer— Deut., 12-3. 

''Neither shalt thou set thee up any image; which the Lord 
thy God hateth."— Z)6W^., 16-22. 

''But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the 
voice of the Lord thy God, to observe to do all his command- 
ments and his statutes w^hich I command thee this day; that all 
these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee. The Lord 
shall smite thee with a consumption, and with a fever, and with 
an inflammation, and with an extreme burning, and with the 
sword, and with blasting, and with mildew^" — Dent., 28:15-23. 

"The Lord will smite thee with the botch (ulcer, probably of 
syphilis) of Egypt, and with the emerods (hemorroids), and with 
the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be healed." — 
Dent., 28, 27. 

"The Lord shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a 
sore botch (gonorrhea and locomotor ataxia) that can not be 
healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy head." — 
Deut., 28-35. 

"Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written 
in the book of this law, them will the Lord bring upon thee, until 
thou be destroyed." — Deut., 28-6L 

"And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he 
died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated'"' — 
Deut., 34-7. 

"And the Lord said. My spirit shall not always strive with 
man, for that he also is flesh; yet his days shall be an hundred 
and tw^enty years." — Genesis, 6-3. This may be taken as the 
life of a perfect man. 

The prophecies of Isaiah, chaps. 47-48, and 49, regarding 
Babylon of old, 700 years before Christ, are strikingly similar to 
the prophecies against the modern Babylon of St. John, written 
in chapters 16-17 and 18 of Revelation, A. D. 96. 

"Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and 
shew my people their transgressions, and the house of Jacob their 
sins." — Isa., 58. 

Here appears a clear distinction between the house of Jacob 
and my people, which projects the verse into the new dispensa- 
tion, and to the elect under the covenant through Jesus Christ. 

The seventh and eighth chapters of Jeremiah are also very 
suggestive of chapters in Revelation. 

"Again I will build thee, and thou shalt be built, virgin of 
Israel; thou shalt again be adorned with thy tabrets, and shall 



32 

go forth in the dances of them that make merry." — Jeremiah, 
31-4. 

"Set thee up waymarks, make thee high heaps: set thine heart 
toward the highway, even the way which thou wentest; turn 
again, virgin of Israel, turn again to these thy cities. How 
long wilt thou go about, thou backsliding daughter? for the 
Lord hath created a new thing in the earth, A woman shall 
compass a man. Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of 
Israel: As yet they shall use this speech in the land of Judah 
(Judah was the lawgiver as the United States, converted into 
Judah or Israel, will be the lawgiver among the nations), and in 
the cities thereof, when I shall bring again their captivity; The 
Lord bless thee, habitation of justice, and mountain of holi- 
ness."— Jeremm/^, 31:21-22-23. 

''And it shall come to pass, that like as I have watched over 
them, to pluck up, and to break down, and to throw down, and 
to destroy, and to afflict; so will I watch over them, to build, 
and to plant, saith the Lord. In those days they shall say no 
more. The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children's 
teeth are set on edge. But every one shall die for his own in- 
iquities; every man that eateth the sour grape, his teeth shall be 
set on edge. Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will 
make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the 
house of Judah: Not according to the covenant that I made 
with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to 
bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant 
they break, although I was an husband unto them, saith the 
Lord; But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the 
house of Israel; After those days, saith the Lord, I will put my 
law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will 
be their God, and they shall be my people. And they ^YiMteach 
no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, 
saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me, from the 
least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord; for I 
will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no 
more. Thus saith the Lord, which giveth the sun for a light by 
day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light 
by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; 
The Lord of hosts is his name; If those ordinances depart from 
before me, saith the Lord, then the seed of Israel also shall 
cease from being a nation before me forever." — Jer., 31:28-36. 

"Thus saith the Lord : Behold, I will raise up against Babylon,, 
and against them that dwell in the midst of them that rise up 
against me, a destroying wind." 

"For Israel hath not been forsaken, nor Judah of his God, of 



33 

the Lord of hosts; though their land was filled with sin against 
the Holy One of Israel. Flee out of the midst of Babylon, and 
deliver every man his soul: be not cut off in her iniquity; for 
this is the time of the Lord's vengeance; he will render unto her 
a recompense." ''Come out of her my people." — Bev. 18-4. 
"Babylon hath been a golden cup in the Lord's hand, that made 
all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken of her wine: 
therefore the nations are mad." In Revelation Babylon is used 
in two entities. Babylon, standing for the United States, and 
Babylon the Great, standing for the Papacy. Ancient Babylon 
was destroyed some 600 years before Revelation was written. 

''Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed: howl for her; 
take balm for her pain, if so be she may be healed. We would 
have healed Babylon, but she is not healed : forsake her, and let 
us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth 
unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies. . . . Make 
bright the arrows; gather the shields; the Lord hath raised up 
the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against 
Babylon, to destroy it; because it is vengeance of the Lord, the 
vengeance of his temple. ... thou that dwellest upon 
many waters, abundant in treasures, thine end is come, and the 
measure of thy covetousness. The Lord of hosts hath sworn by 
himself, saying, Surely I will fill thee with men, as with cater- 
pillars; and they shall lift up a shout against thee. 
Every man is bruitish by his knowledge; every founder is con- 
founded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, 
and there is no breath in them. They are vanity, the work of 
errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish. The 
portion of Jacob is not like them; for he is the former of all 
things: and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: the Loid of 
hosts is his name. Thou (the U. S. become Israel restored) art 
my battle ax and weapons of war: for with thee will I break in 
pieces the nations, and with thee will I destroy kingdoms; And 
I will render unto Babylon and to all the inhabitants of Chaldea 
all their evil that they have done in Zion in your sight, saith 
the Lord." ("Chaldeans, in a more extended sense, the inhabit- 
ants of Babylonia generally; but in a more correct and restricted 
sense, their priests and philosophers." — Williams.) ("It appears 
probable that the philosophers of Chaldea were the priests of 
the Babylonian nation, who instructed the people in the prin- 
ciples of religion, interpreted its laws, and conducted its cere- 
monies." — Watson.) 

"One post shall run to meet another, and one messenger to 
meet another, to show the king of Babylon that his city is taken 
at one end." "As Babylon hath caused the slain of Israel to 

1988—3 



34 

fall, so at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the earth. We are 
confounded, because we have heard reproach: shame hath cov- 
ered our faces: for strangers are come into the sanctuaries of 
the Lord's house. Wherefore, behold, the days come, saith the 
Lord, that I will do judgment upon her graven images; and 
through all her land the wounded shall groan. . . . Though 
Babylon should mount up to heaven, and though she should 
fortify the height of her strength, yet from me shall spoilers come 
unto her, saith the Lord. A sound of a cry cometh from Baby- 
lon, and great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans 
(priests). So Jeremiah wrote in a book all the evil that should 
come upon Babylon, even all these words that are written against 
Babylon. And it shall be, when thou hast made an end of read- 
ing this book, that thou shalt bmd a stone to it, and cast it into 
the midst of Euphrates. And thou shalt say. Thus shall Babylon 
sink, and shall not rise from the evil that I will bring upon her; 
and they shall be weary.'' — Jeremiah, 51. 

The 10th chapter of Isaiah, is a very suggestive chapter to the 
United States; verse 5 says: ^'0 Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, 
and the staff in their hand is mine indignation." (Of the govern- 
ment, laws, religion, learning, customs, etc., of the ancient 
Assyrians, nothing absolutely certain is recorded. Their king- 
dom was at first small, and subsisted for several ages under 
hereditary chiefs; and their government was simple. Afterwards, 
when they rose to the sublimity of empire, their government 
seems to have been despotic, and the empire hereditary. Their 
laws were probably few, and depended upon the mere will of the 
prince. To Minus we may ascribe the division of the Assyrian 
empire into provinces and governments; for we find that this 
institution was fully established in the reigns of Semiramis and 
her successors. The people were distributed into a certain num- 
"ber of tribes; and their occupations or professions were hered- 
itary. . . • The Assyrians had several distinct councils, and 
several tribunals for the regulation of public affairs. Of coun- 
<;ils there were three, which were created by the body of the 
people, and who governed the state in conjunction with the sov- 
ereign. The first consisted of officers who had retired from mil- 
itary employments; the second, of the nobility; and the third, 
of the old men (Elder statesmen). The sovereigns also had three 
tribunals, whose province it was to watch over the conduct of 
the people." — Jones-Watson. This, I understand, is a remarkable 
picture of growing. Imperial Japan.) "I will send him against an 
hypocritical nation (the U. S.), and against the people of my 
wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the 
prey (not the nation; say the Philippines), and to tread them 



35 

down like the mire of the street. Howbeit he meaneth not so 
(not to go against the seat of the hypocritical nation, but her 
isles), neither doth his heart think so; but it is in his heart to 
destroy and cut off nations not a few. For he saith, Are not my 
princes altogether kings? ... As my hand hath found the 
kingdoms of the idols, and whose graven images did excel them 
of Jerusalem and Samaria (successful war with China and Rus- 
sia) ; Shall I not, as / have done unto Samaria and her idols, so 
do to Jerusalem (U. S. in Philippines) and her idols? (Here 
Samaria, a synonym for the Holy Land, may stand for the 
Catholic Church, which Japan has repeatedly ordered out of her 
territory.) 

"Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the Lord hath 
performed his whole work upon mount Zion and on Jerusalem, 
I will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the king of Assyria, 
and the glory of his high looks. 

''For he saith. By the strength of my hsiud I have done it, and 
by 7711/ wisdom; for I am prudent; (the secretiveness of Japan 
is proverbial) and I have removed the bounds of the people, 
(China) and have robbed their treasures, and I have put down 
the inhabitants like a valiant man: And my hand hath found as 
a nest the riches of the people; ajid as one gathereth eggs that 
are left, have I gathered all the earth; (Ancient Chinese maps 
pictured China as the earth, the balance being a few incon- 
siderable islands) and there was none (nation) that moved the 
wing (America's Eagle wing, or the German or Russian Eagle 
wing), or opened the mouth, or peeped.'' Then punishment is 
decreed. ''And the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his 
Holy One for a flame: (the second coming of Christ) and it shall 
burn and devour his thorns and his briars in one day; And shall 
consume the glory of his forest, (people) and of his fruitful 
held, both soul and body; and they shall be as when a standard 
bearer (first class nation) fainteth. . . . And it shall come 
to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as are 
esca}:)ed of the house of Jacob, shall no more again stav upon him 
that smote them; but shall stay upon the Lord, the Holy One of 
Israel, in truth." This chapter seem^ to involve two different 
powers with us, and without a strong line of division, prophesy- 
ing in one verse of one, and apparently in a succeeding verse of 
the other. However, the Papacy is very clearly indicated. "The 
remnant shall return, even the remnant of Jacob, unto the 
mighty God. For though thy people Israel be as the sand of 
t e sea, yet a remnant of them shall return; the consumption 
decreed (punishment by tuberculosis and other plagues, but very 



36 

apt language considering our present condition of health) shall 
(in the milienium) overflow with righteousness (universal ^'square 
deal"). For the Lord God of hosts shall make a consumption, 
even determined, in the midst of the land. (This consumption 
as contended elsewhere, for the adultery of the State with the 
Papacy. Treason to the Almighty.) Therefore thus saith the 
Lord God of hosts, my people that dwellest in Zion,be not afraid 
of the Assyrian (Japan): he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall 
lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt (Papacy 
trying to "supplant by fraud," after the manner deceitlully- 
suddenly). For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall 
cease, and mine anger in their destruction. And the Lord of 
hosts shall stir up a scourge for him according to the slaughter 
of Midian at the rock of Oreb:' (Judges, 7th Chap,) and as his 
rod (power-naval) was upon the sea, so shall he lift it up after 
the manner of Egypt. And it shall come to pass in that day, 
•that his burden shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and 
his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed be- 
cause of theanointing" (of, by or through the change in the U. S.) 

Of the places mentioned in the chapter, ''Gibeah of Saul," 
being called ''Bean Hill," might indicate Boston, or Gibbons of 
(Saul) Uncle Sam. 

''And he shall cut down the thickets of the forest (dense, 
worthless underbrush of population) with iron, (rod of punish- 
ment) and Lebanon shall fall by a mighty one." "Lebanon, 
signifying white, from its snows; the most elevated mountain or 
mountain chain in Syria, celebrated in all ages for its cedars; 
which, as is well known, furnished the wood for Solomon's temple. 
This mountain is the centre or nucleus of all the mountain 
ridges which, from the north, the south, and the east, converge 
towards this point; but it overtops them all. The cedar of 
Lebanon has, in all ages, been reckoned an object of unrivaled 
grandeur and beauty in the vegetable kingdom. It is, accord- 
ingly, one of the natural images which frequently occur in the 
poetic style of the Hebrew prophets; and is appropriate to de- 
note kings, princes, and potentates of the highest rank. The 
stupendous size, the extensive range, and great elevation of 
Libanus; its towering summits, capped with perpetual snow, or 
crowned with fragrant cedars; its olive plantations; its vine- 
yards producing the most delicious wines; its clear fountains, 
and cold-flowing brooks; its fertile vales, and odoriferous shrub- 
beries, combine to form, in scripture language, 'the glory of 
Lebanon.' But that glory, liable to change, has, by the unani- 
mous consent of modern travelers, suffered a sensible decline.

The extensive forests of cedar, which adorned and perfumed the 
summits and declivities of those mountains, have almost dis- 
appeared. 

''Only a small number of these 'trees of God, planted by his 
Almighty hand,' which, according to the usual import of the 
phrase, signally displayed the divine power, wisdom, and good- 
ness now remain. Their countless numbers in the days of Solo- 
mon, and their prodigious bulk, must be recollected, in order to 
feel the force of that sublime declaration of the prophet: 'Le- 
banon is not sufficient to burn, nor the beasts thereof sufficient 
for a burnt offering.'" 

The eighth chapter of Daniel in part is a prophecy of the inva- 
sion of the United States. In verse 2, the province of Elam, is 
by Stephanus, Assyrian. 

The name Greek in both Testaments, commonly implies a 
Gentile, hence, though this prophecy may have had a significance 
as to Media, Persia and Grecia, it is obvious if, "at the time of 
the end shall be the vision," it has equal significance now, if 
now be the ''time of the end." For the time of the end, it is 
then reduced to a conflict beginning between the Assyrian, 
{DanieVs symbol by Medes and Persians, of idolatry) and the 
Greek (or Gentile). "Now that (Grecia, symbol of Gentile repre- 
sentative government) being broken ... in the latter time 
of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, 
a king (the Pope of Rome) of fierce countenance, and under- 
standing dark sentences, (deceitful) shall stand up. And his 
power shall be mighty, but not by his own power; (through 
craft and kingdoms) and he shall destroy wonderfully, and 
shall prosper, and practice ("to perform certain acts frequently, 
customarily, to practice medicine." — Webster), and shall destroy 
the mighty and the holy people. And through his policy also he 
shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and heshall magnify 
himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many (how 
very true is that in his practice of "regular" medicine — "by 
peace shall destroy many"); he shall also stand up against the 
Prince of princes (showing himself in the temple of God, that 
he is God); but he shall be broken without hand." 

This breaking of the Papacy "without hand," is to be accom- 
plished through Congress, or the sentiment of the people acting 
on Congress. 

It is essential to keep in mind in the reading of all scripture 
that much of the expression and teaching of the time was in 
imagery and symbol, and that in the scriptures Jesus Christ is 
thus directly and indirectly designated 73 times. We must, also, 
bear in mind that the intent of prophecy was to prove Divinity 



38 

and to teach, hence, prophecy may cover both an immediate 
event by names of nations literal, and when associated with 
imagery the like event in one or more later nations, to which 
the imagery by analogy and logic apply. Hence symbols relat- 
ing to the same event, double or triple, may not always be the 
same by all the prophets living in the difierent ages of the very 
diversified experience of the Children of Israel, and they have 
most all prophesied the same event in the United States, the 
promised land, the focus of all prophecy, in ''the time of the 
end," but the logic of them all, the analogy of them all to his- 
torical facts and known conditions, focus upon us and is in- 
tended to teach and justify the words of John, 5th, 36th: ''But 
I have greater witness than that of John; for the works which 
the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, 
bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me. And the 
Father himself, which hath sent me, hath home witness of me. 
Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape. 
And ye have not his word abiding in you; for whom he hath 
sent, him ye believe not. Search the scriptures; iov in them ye 
think ye have eternal life: and they are they w^hich (in prophecy 
to be fulfilled) testify of me." 

John wrote his epistles, gospel, and revelation all in different 
style. The beautiful imagery of Revelation; the epitome of this 
dispensation is sublime. Of this Revelation and dispensation 
I am persuaded we have already lived up all but the last four 
chapters. (Rev., 16-17-18 and 19.) 

Of the sixteenth chapter, we are now experiencing the second 
verse; the language is apt in the nature of the plague; points to 
tuberculosis; particularly of the lungs and of syphilis, now more 
prevalent than ever before with us. A reaction from the practice 
of "regular" medicine, an arm of the Papal priesthood, "upon 
the men which had the mark of the beast (by association), and 
upon them which worshipped his image." (Papists). Mark of the 
beast here means those interests and nations which, against the 
divine command, committed fornication or adultery with this 
Church, apostate to God, through having other Gods before or 
"beside" him. 

It is notable in Scripture that the serpent is represented as 
Satan. He appears in the Garden of Eden corrupting the 
woman, who in imagery stands for religion, the virgin for the 
pure, the harlot for the pagan, appears as the corrupting in- 
fluence before the flood, and the almost utter departure from 
the teaching of God. Appears again in adulterous practice of 
the Israelites among themselves and with other nations. The 
illustration of the Serpent or Satan, is given by God through 



39 

Moses and Aaron in Egypt, when through the rod of Aaron as a 
serpent smiting the waters, and land and cattle of Egypt, the 
plagues were brought upon her. This was done in the very 
presence of Israel, themselves protected from the plagues, show- 
ing in object-lesson the power of God. A very instructive lesson 
was shown, in the swallowing by Aaron's rod (made a serpent) 
of the serpents produced by the Magicians (or doctors) of 
Pharaoh; that, however subtle the earthly or Satanic serpent, 
that subtlety could not stand before the subtle power of God. 
So I believe in fulfillment here, the subtlety of prophetic prop- 
hecy is to be impressed upon this people. Moses in the wilder- 
ness later in setting up the brazen serpent, sought to impress 
and retain this lesson, that faith in the power of God overcame 
the subtlety of the serpent of Satan; but it was finally per- 
verted, when the Israelites became rebellious because they could 
not enter at once into their promised inheritance; next came 
rebellion against God himself, and his worship transferred to 
the brazen serpent. The Serpent appears again among the 
Apostles of our Lord, in Judas Iscariot, and later in the apos- 
tasy of the Christian Church into Papal paganism. ''By a sig- 
nificant unanimity, the serpent upon the staff has been generally 
accepted as the symbol of the medical art. Egyptians, Greeks, 
Germans, South American Indians and North Americans em- 
ployed it alike. The asp on the crown of Queen Isis, the Fire- 
Serpent on the sign post of Assyrian physicians, the rattlesnake 
hieroglyphics of Mexico and Brazil, and the Ophidion upon the 
Magic staff of Apollo, Aesculapius and Hippocrates all meant 
the same thing. The serpent was the signifier of the occult life 
principle, and of that knowledge of it which rendered the pos- 
sessor as a divine or preturnaturally endowed being. Even the 
brazen Seraph coiled upon a pole or staff and set up by Moses 
in the wilderness, we are told, possessed such power, that any- 
one about to die, when he beheld it, recovered from his extreme 
peril. (Elsewhere the application is illustrated. This, as usual, 
does God and Moses an injustice.) While the serpent was thus 
arcanely symbolic, the staff was also part of the ancient physi- 
cian's armamentarium. The direction of the Israelitish prophet- 
abbot to his servant was a meaning one: 'Take my staff in thine 
hand, and go thy way: if thou meet any man, salute him not; 
and if any salute thee, answer him not again: and lay my staff 
upon the face of the child.'" — II Kings, 4-29. This was an- 
other lesson to Israel, which had then rejected God's form of 
government and declined to a King, were apostate, and had 
turned to Baal, "the person of natural causes," for "the staff" 
was Elisha's, a holy man of God, a prophet. This is a most 



40 



illuminating chapter, and shows convincingly how the spurious 
engrafts onto the genuine, and the apostate may assume to be 
the real. This chapter contains four other miracles wrought 
through Elisha — not through the staff — a powerful lesson to 
the apostate. ''A physician without his staff would have been 
regarded in ancient times like his fellow, the enchanter, without 
his wand. The fitness of the symbol of health or 'sign of salva- 
tion' is, therefore, abundantly shown. The serpent upon the 
rod, as significative of healing virtue, very justly, has been ac- 
cepted (appropriated) by the medical profession of both hemis- 
pheres. The story of the book of Genesis was by no means out 
of place when it described the animal as ministrant at the Tree 
in the Garden." — Wilder. Nevertheless, the favorite symbol 
of the prophets for the doctor is the locust or grasshopper. 
The serpent was the sign of the magician, the soothsayer, and 
the alchemist, the very school of which Thomas Aquinas, the 
eminent Papal theologian and chemist, was a bright example, 
which fully accounts for the kind of theology. 

From the dawn of time, in the Garden of Eden, the tree in 
the midst of the Garden (herbal medicine), has stood for the tree 
of life, and Satan the serpent with (mercury and) medicines not 
herbal, have stood for its counterfeit. 

Thus the Serpent-Satan, meeting the Almighty, the author of 
life and the great physician, at the tree of life in the Garden of 
Eden, seducing Eve from faith to the Almighty's allegiance, has 
come down through all the centuries, the subtile antagonist of 
God, the wily counterfeit of God, working his game as smoothly, 
and as successfully, as easily; and to us, as disastrously as when 
*' ministrant'' in the Garden. And it as ministrant, that the 
game is most successfully worked. In the new dispensation the 
Pope takes the place of God, and for the herbal medicines of 
God, he gives us mineral medicines, and the engrafting of the 
brute upon the human, so at the very gate of Eden to be re- 
stored, we have the condition upon which God shut the gate of 
Eden. 

Clearly, if God be a God of truth and power, to restore Israel, 
to open Eden the promised land, he must by force of pestilence 
and power remove all those upon whom prophecy and teach- 
ing have had no effect. The world become materialistic, must 
be materialistically taught. The world become scientific, and 
faith not being a science to them, the failure of science must 
teach them. 

Is it a wonder, after designating the Tree of Life in the Gar- 
den of Eden, ''Leaf thereof for medicine . . . leaves for 
the healing of the nations . . . BalmofGilead . . . the 



41 

Jordan . . . and pool of Siloam," without a single recom- 
mendation of mercury or any other mineral medicine, or even 
of the invaccinating of the monkey and the brute, the Almighty 
should smite us with plague of consumption, syphilis, hemor- 
rhoids, when we follow the apostate church by adopting into our 
Army and Navy and Civil Service her medical arm, and insist on 
maintaining on our coins, ''In God We Trust?" Invoke on our 
coins physical salvation of God, and adopt into our Army and 
Navy and Civil Service, and make an integral part of the Gov- 
ernment; proposing for it a Cabinet seat; the very Serpent 
which the Almighty has fought throughout all time, and whose 
battles are written on every page of Scripture? 

Are we greater than God, that we may defy Him,and glory in our 
scientific attainment, that we find the very germs of the plagues 
symbolized against us nearly 3,500 years ago? 

Is it a wonder that while in the United States every science 
but medicine has been a growing beneficence, a simplified knowl- 
edge and a national glory, medicine alone, has become more 
complex, more halting and uncertain, "a grievous, noisome sore," 
spreading, increasing mortality and shortening the span of human 
life? The very medium employed by the Almighty to scourge 
and destroy us for apostasy. Not one of its allied sciences but 
have made luminous progress. That the United States the hope 
of humanity, seduced by the "wiles of foreign influence," has 
taken to her bosom and warned the serpent of Papacy, only to 
be stung by its fangs, in the smiting by plague for our apostasy, 
under our "humanitarian," and much vaunted doctrine of "re- 
ligious toleration," introduced in scripture by the Philistines as 
an aid to them to smite the Israelites, and though ably expounded 
through big stick and steam roller representatives, is no new 
"evidence of our culture and advancement," to the Almighty. 
We had better not know so much, as to know so much that is 
not true. PATRIOTIC. 

With our present health conditions identified by verse 2d 
of Rev. 16, the two following vials of wrath appear to be war 
on land and sea, and what then follows is not mitigated by its 
obscurity. The tenth verse is applied to the seat of the beast, 
or Rome. The twelfth verse refers by some commentators to the 
Mohammedan power, which in the new government of Turkey, 
is all but "dried up." "That the way of the kings of the east 
might be prepared," refers us back to Media and Persia, and "0 
Assyrian." The thirteenth verse is obscure; the symbols indi- 
cate the Roman, Greek, and Mohammedan religions, and for the 
dragon a far east power could be taken. These powers might 



42 

well gather the nations of the earth to a final fight between 
despotism and liberty. 

It must be borne in mind, that every throne in Europe is 
menaced by socialism; that Turkey has just adopted a constitu- 
tion, the old order is just changed in Persia, the Berlin treaty 
brushed aside by William, and that every considerable nation is 
arming to her financial capacity, and with haste. That under 
such conditions, monarchy may elect to make at once the final 
straggle between the two principles of government; the Divine 
right of God, or the divine right of kings. They must make that 
struggle soon, or see it shrivel or be snatched. It may even now 
be too late to act. Our struggle, just the opposite, is to main- 
tain what we claim to have. In the struggle of William for 
colonial possessions, and a covetous eye on Brazil, I recall his 
action in Manila Bay. The talk of Japan (or the Philippines 
and control of the Pacific is old. Honeycombed with the Papacy 
at home, and more ''religious toleration" to be given them in 
the Government service, a community of interest and purpose 
there, with the uprising of the Pope all but controlling our 
administrative offices in Washington, on this side of the water; 
confessional boxes, and traitors in them on every of our men of 
war, we could face paralysis on land, and mutiny, or blowing up 
of all our ships, and have a preliminary baptism of blood here, 
before we met the united navies of Europe at our ports. A 
Romanist who can be nerved to shoot Lincoln, and another to 
shoot McKinley, and go with the secret in his heart to the 
gallows, can find a counterpart on every man of war, to blow 
her up, for the glory of Holy Mother Church, but we won't 
''remember the Maine." 

From the Old Testament, the kindergarten of nations, with 
its direct commands against idolatry, adorned with the symbols 
of prophecy, we turn to the simple parables of the new dispen- 
sation spoken to a civilization of four thousand years building, 
and from which, in sculpture, architecture, poetry, prose, and 
engineering, we find models today. 

Passing the earlier reflections of the Old Testament found in 
Matthew, we pass to the 24th chapter to coincide with the 
prophecies of Isaiah, Daniel, Ezekiel in the old, with Revela- 
tion in the new, and take the parable of our Lord at the 14th 
verse of the 25th chapter: "For the kingdom of heaven (and 
with 'new heaven and a new earth' we might be the kingdom of 
Heaven) is as a man (Christ himself) travelling into a far coun- 
trv, etc." He is now the King of the Jews by blood and the 
King of the Gentiles by adoption. By ascension he went to 
Heaven, a far country for most of us, promising to return to 



43 

reign. He leaves his goods (kingdom) in trust. ''Alter a long 
time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with 
them." And }'ou will notice he "reckoneth" first with the one 
that had most entrusted to him; the one he most trusted and 
most honored. Theji he reckoned with those who didn't have 
so much to account for. 

America inaugurated under Christian influence; in latter 
years assuming and by right the position of humanitarian and 
Christian leader of the World; in her political government ap- 
proximating the idea provided for Israel, is easily the first trus- 
tee to settle with. "And he gathered them together into a 
place (not the place) called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon." 
"Literally signifying the mountain of Megiddon, or Megeddo, a 
city situated in the great plain at the foot of Mt. Carmel. . . . 
Though spoken of in general as a great mountain, it (Carmel) 
ought rather to be considered as a mountainous region, the 
whole of which was known by the name of Carmel, while to one 
of the hills, more elevated than the rest, that name was usually 
applied by way of eminence. It had the plain of Sharon (pro- 
verbial for extraordinary beauty and fruitfulness) on the south, 
overlooking the port of Ptolemais on the north, a seaport of 
Palestine. Its site enjoys all possible advantage by sea and 
land. It is situated on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea 
(called the Great Sea, as the Pacific is our great sea), thirty 
miles south of Tyre (symbol of England), on the north angle of 
a bay to which it gives its name, and which extends in a semi- 
circle, etc. . . . On the north and east was a spacious and 
fertile plain. On the south and west sides it was washed by the 
sea, and was bounded on the west by the Mediterranean Sea, 
forming one of the most remarkable promontories that present 
themselves on the shores of that great sea. It is about 2,000 
feet in height, and has the shape of a flattened cone. The fast- 
nesses of this rugged mountain are so difficult of access, that 
the prophet Amos classed them with the deeps of hell, the 
heights of heaven, and the bottom of the sea. Even the lofty 
genius of Isaiah, stimulated and guided by the spirit of inspira- 
tion, could not find a more appropriate figure to express the 
flourishing state of the Redeemer's Kingdom than 'the ex- 
cellency of Carmel and Sharon'" (Calmet-Watson). 

This place, called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon, is not 
unlike the Rocky range and the "spacious and fertile" plain of 
the Mississippi, and reminds of the story of Bansai; the attack 
of the Japs on our Pacific coast. 

Say fifty thousand Japs should rise, and hold the Rocky range 
(and there are that many on the coast); that the Pope, in league. 



44 

should cause an uprising in the Mississippi valley to support 
them, St. Paul, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Omaha, Kansas 
City, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Memphis, New Orleans, 
and the intermediate andadjoining towns, shouldrise to ''supplant 
by fraud," as the Republican National Platform of 1864 warned, 
it would make a pretty fair gathering of the nations to Arma- 
geddon. Say all railway communication stopped and wires cut, 
we could easily find it embarrassing. At this point we may con- 
sider that in the election of W. H. Taft as our President we have 
also denied the kingship of Christ, as the Jews did, the President 
denying that Christ and the Father are one. Another person, 
while President, endorsed this action as right, as a man's religion 
is a matter between himself and his God, and there is no National 
recognition of God, even taking such recognition off from our 
coins, put on by Lincoln. This self-inflated, self-righteous, 
self-exalted Jesuitical analogy, seemed to think his rebuke of 
the Almighty forever settled the matter. The Jew, as prophe- 
sied, has been a by-word and a hissing. What has our boasting 
nation done but the very same thing as the Jew has. 

A favored Nation, as were the Jews, they refused his reign as 
king, crucified his person, saying, ''His blood be upon us and 
upon our children." 

True this was by a part, l^ut enough to curse them as a nation, 
and a heathen Governor publicly washed his hands in protest 
against the taking off. It was the overt act of a few who clamored 
for a "strong government," with the passive consent of the 
balance. 

We denied Christ by our votes, at the polls; we went Israel 
one better. What is the fruit of our adultery with this Serpent 
of Papacy? The delivery very largely to this Serpent power, 
of the practical administrative machinery of the government. 
Our foreign representation especially large in Papists, who can 
suppress information of designs of foreign powers, favorable to 
the Papacy and dangerous to us. Not content with our Presi- 
dential action, we put over our populiir assembly, a man who 
uses the high office to publish and point his proud and open 
coarse profanity; an insult to the dignity of his office, an offense 
to common decency, and a challenge to high Heaven to smite. 
For years the Senate has been chaplained by men denying the 
Divinity of Christ. For years in statuary hall has stood in 
marble, and in the Jesuit garb, Marquette, a Jesuit, of the 
Society of Jesus; a society responsible for more murders, and 
blood than any society of any nature in all history. With 
principles below the ethics of an Indian, and a practical working 
shaming hell itself. Yet there it stands, year after year, defying 



45 

God Almighty, in the name of the people of the United States. 
If he does not strike this nation, what man has any use for such 
a God. A God which will not preserve in his own nation, his 
own dignity? 

If for 3,500 years the Jewish nation has earned the fate known 
and read of all men, how much less have we earned, who denied 
the body to crucify, have crucified in spirit and put him to an 
open shame? In God we Trust, is no less a mockery than the 
writing on the cross, ''Jesus of Nazareth the King of the Jews." 
"Oh ye sons of men, how long will ye turn my glory into 
shame?" — Psms., 4-^- ''They both killed the Lord Jesus and their 
own prophets, and persecuted the apostles, and so filled up their 
sins and wrath came upon them to the uttermost." We have 
our reply in the 17th Chapter of Ezekiel, where we are notified 
that our covenant is broken; ''But he rebelled against him in 
sending his ambassadors into Egypt (symbol for the Papacy), 
that they might give him horses and 7nuch people. Shall he 
prosper? shall he escape that doeth such things? or shall he 
break the covenant, and be delivered?" Roosevelt against un- 
WTitten law, tradition and precedent, after being advanced by 
McKinley's blood; reversing McKinley's policy to the Pope's 
advantage, sent W. H. Taft and others, ambassadors who 
treated with the Pope's Secretary of State, a pretension every 
other President had denied. As supporting the "supplant by 
fraud" utterance of Lincoln, through the Republican National 
platform of 1864, the 17th verse is apt. "Neither shall Pharaoh 
(symbol for the Pope) with his mighty army and great company 
make for him in the ivar, by casting up mounts (fortifications), 
and building forts, to cut off many persons." 

Notice this wording, it is not an outside attack, but a casting 
up of mounts and building of forts to cut off many persons; 
now 16th verse; "in the place where the king (people) dwelleth 
that made (elected) him (Roosevelt) king." 

Jefferson wrote the Declaration of American Independence, 
the great exposition of "human right," in harmony with the 
will of God. His party, through adultery with the Pnpacy, 
apostasized, the Nation was punished with war, the sublime 
Lincoln is sacrificed, and the Democratic party is become Babel. 
Lincoln starts the Republican party with ample warning against 
this power, which he knew had a hand in the rebellion; it com- 
mits adultery with the Papacy; McKinley, its menace, as was 
Lincoln, is assassinated; the American policy is reversed by 
Roosevelt, and he strengthens the hold of the Serpent on the 
government. Our Administrative Chief and our Legislative Chief, 
an abomination to the Almighty, our Capitol housing the statute 



46 

of a Jesuit and honoring this Society in the presence of Wash- 
ington and Hamilton, who openly denounced it, what more can 
we do but pass a joint resolution of insult? Why should we 
escape and the Jew be punished? 

If we have become a Papal dependency take out the statues 
of Washington, the men who were with him at Valley Forge 
and at the Council table. 

Take out Lincoln and the men who held up his hands and 
make the Capitol the gallery of the "Engineer Corps of Hell." 

The 17th Chapter of Revelation can hardly be mistaken as 
referring very directly to the Papal Church. In Revelation, in 
several places, Babylon appears to symbolize both the United 
States and the Papal Church, but in this chapter, by way of 
emphasis or degree of iniquity, the Papal Church is called 
"Babylon the Great," as well as identified by three other 
symbols. 

In the second verse of the 18th chapter of Revelation it will 
be noticed that the angel announces that "Babylon the Great 
is fallen," and in the 21st verse we have a repetition of verses 
63-64 in the 51st Chapter of Jeremiah. 

The decided similarity of several verses is easily apparent; 
the reference to "ambushes" suggests again an internal uprising. 
The 25th verse of Jeremiah indicates a punishment as by fire, 
and the 26th indicates a change in the political form of govern- 
ment. The 45th verse of the 51st of Jeremiah is striking like 
the 4th verse of the 18th of Revelation. The striking similarity 
of the 51st of Jeremiah to portions of Revelation, especially the 
17th and 18th chapters, has added significance, when the last 
three verses of this chapter of Jeremiah are read. 

It will be found further along, the striking analogy between 
Babylon and the United States, the geographical position of the 
Euphrates corresponding to our Mississippi, and that Egypt 
bears a striking likeness to the Papacy. The 12th and 13th 
verses of Revelation, pre-figure the rise of the United States and 
the Papacy, and the final casting out of Satan, the Papal in- 
fluence; the 18th verse of the 13th chapter, directly identifying 
the Papacy. "Let him that hath understanding count the num- 
ber of the beast; for it is the number of a man; and his number 
is Six hundred threescore and six." 

"In ancient times it was customary to designate names by 
numbers; the first nine letters of the Greek alphabet represent- 
ing the units, the next nine letters the tens, and the third nine 
letters the hundreds, etc. ... No name appears more 
proper and suitable than that famous one mentioned by 
Irenaeus, who lived not long after St. John's time, and was the 



47 

disciple of Polycarp the disciple of John. He saith, that 'the 
name Lateinos contains the number 666; and it is very likely, 
because the last kingdom is so called, for they are Latins who 
now reign. . . . Lateinos with ei is the true orthography, 
as the Greeks wrote the long i of the Latins, and as the Latins 
themselves wrote in former times; . . . and as Dr. Henry 
More expresseth it, they Latinize everything. 'Mass, prayers, 
hymns, litanies, canons, decretals, bulls, are conceived in Latin.' 
And probably as the apostle hath made use of some Hebrew 
names in this book, as 'Abaddon,' IX. II, and 'Armageddon,' 
16-16, so might he in this place likewise allude to the name in 
the Hebrew language. Now 'Romith' is the Hebrew name for 
^Roman beast' or 'Roman kingdom;' and this word, as well as 
the former word 'Lateinos' contains the just and exact number 
666. It is really surprising that there should be such a fatal 
coincidence in both names in both languages. Mr. Pyle asserts, 
and I believe he may assert very truly, that 'no other word, in 
any language whatever, can be found to express both the same 
number, and the same thing.' " — Diss. Prop., 619. "Others have 
found out that, in the Latin language, 666 signifies 'Vicar of the 
Son of God,' which the Popes have had inscribed upon their 
mitres, and on the door of the Vatican. We have then, in the 
Hebrew language, 'Romith,' meaning 'Roman kingdom' and 
^Roman beast,' and signifying both the original and the place 
of the two-horned beast; in the Greek tongue 'Lateinos,' indi- 
cating the language in which 'the little horn' 'speaks great 
words against the Most High;' and in the Latin language 'Vicar 
of the Son of God,' as one of the many blasphemous titles that 
the 'Mother of Harlots' assumes in order to 'reign over the kings 
of the earth,' and to 'corrupt the earth with her lewdness.' 
How wonderful are the means afforded for identifying the 
^\ntichrist,' 'the Man of Sin.' For as the blessed Jesus, the true 
Christ, the Son of God, the Saviour of men, had His superscrip- 
tion, 'Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews,' written in 
Hebrew, Greek and Latin, so the Omniscient has designated the 
Antichrist, the enemy of God and man, in the same three 
languages." — Collom. 

"For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall 
bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem, I will gather 
all nations, and bring them down into the valley of Jehosha- 
phat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my 
heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, 
and parted my land." — Joel, 3, 1-2. 

"And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince 
T^^hich standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall 



48 

be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation 
even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be 
delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.'' — 
Dan., 12-1. 

''Some maintain that the ancient Hebrews had named no par- 
ticular place the valley of Jehoshaphat; but that Joel intended 
generally the place where God would judge the nations, and 
will appear at the last judgment in the brightness of his maj- 
esty. Jehoshaphat, in Hebrew, signifies, 'the judgment of God/ 
It is very probable that the valley of Jehoshaphat, that is, of 
of God's judgment, is symbolical, as well as the valley of 
slaughter, in the same chapter." — Calmet-V/atson. 

It is quite as probable that the symbol is employed because 
of the prophetic analogy. "Jehoshaphat, son of Asa, a pious and 
illustrious King of Judah, ascended the throne when aged thirty- 
five (John Quincy Adams, Unitarian and pious, just after the 
United States was thirty-five years old; just after the Monroe 
'era of good feeling'), and reigned twenty-five years (which 
takes us approximately to Franklin Pierce, who traded a Cabi- 
net position for Catholic votes, which appears to be the com- 
plexion of the move for a Secretary of National Health). . . . 
He generally kept an army, or more probably an enrolled mili- 
tia, of a million of men, without reckoning the troops in his strong- 
holds. Scripture, however, reproaches Jehoshaphat on account 
of his alliance with the idolatrous Ahab King of Israel (alliance 
of Southern leaders with the Pope in our civil war). Jehoshaphat 
(Uncle Sam) repaired his fault by the regulations and good 
order which he afterward established in his dominions (Lincoln), 
both as to civil and religious affairs; by appointing honest and 
able judges (Dred Scott decision), by regulating the discipline 
of the pn'gs^s (which was Lincoln's 'Great Purpose') and Levites, 
and by enjoining them to perform punctually their duty (Lin- 
coln on respect for law). 

"After this God gave him, in answer to his prayers, a com- 
plete triumph over the Moabites, Ammonites, and Meonians. 
Some time afterwards Jehoshaphat (Uncle Sam), repeating his 
error, agreed with Ahaziah, the idolatrous King of Israel, jointly 
to equip a fleet (Uncle Sam furnishing the Man of War and the 
Pope the confessional box) in the port of Eziongaber, on the 
Red Sea, in order to go to Tarsliish, and was punished by the 
loss of his fleet." — Calmet. "While on the Red Sea, April 15th 
(and the Bible has a valuable Red Sea reference in Exodus 
XIV), en route to Mombasa, Theodore Roosevelt wrote a letter 
to Cardinal Satolli, in which he said: 'I look forward to renew- 
ing our acquaintance a year hence when I shall present my 



49 

respects to the Holy Father to whom I beg of you to give my 
WARM PERSONAL REGARDS/ ''—Washington Post, 5-3-'09. 

The 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th, and 14th Chapters of Isaiah cover 
in part the chapters of Revelation. The 16th verse of the 
11th Chapter reads: ''And there shall be an highway for the 
remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria; like as 
it was to Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of 
Egypt." That is miraculous, like the highway through the Red 
Sea. 

That the then present Israel might know this prophecy of 
Isaiah had a double, or also a projected aspect, he says in the 
14th, 29th; ''Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod 
of him that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root 
shall come forth a cockatrice, and his fruit shall be a fiery fiying 
serpent.'' Taylor identifies the Cockatrice thus; "Of all others, 
the cobra di capello (Cockatrice) or hooded serpent (after the 
manner of a Monk's hood) inflicts the most deadly and incurable 
wounds. . . . The bite of this animal is said to be incurable, 
the patient dying in about an hour {approximately four proph- 
etic years) 2iitQv the wound; the whole frame being dissolved 
into one putrid mass of corruption." 

There is left for the Hebrew's consideration, however, in the 
very last verse of the Old Testament the ultimatum of the Lord 
to him. God had promised the inheritance without condition, 
and because Christ came not as a king he was not accepted, and 
the Jews still look for a kingly king. But it is made reasonably 
clear that this rebellion of centuries, in which the Hebrew has 
held the Almighty to the contract, himself standing out, will 
have a solution. In the manner of Christ's coming there will be 
no reasonable doubt of his kingly authority sufficient to satisfy 
the waiting of centuries. Professing to stand on the Law of 
Moses for justification to ask the covenant made without con- 
dition, it will probably be found that by reason of breaking 
of the Mosaic Law they would all be lost anyway, so they will 
call to mind the last three verses of Malachi. "Remember ye 
the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in 
Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments. Behold, I 
will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great 
and dreadful day of the Lord: 

"And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, 
and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and 
smite the earth with a curse. ' ' 

The logic of the situation is this : If the Jew wants to go through 
this terrible ordeal of the coming of Christ, even though they 



50 

be steeped in sin, he will exempt them from summary judg- 
ment to enter the promised land, yet with the alternative of a 
curse, to which their former experiences have not been so con- 
sidered, will determine them to save the ''remnant" of the 
race. In them will be excited a conception of that fatherly 
compassion which moved to the sacrifice of life to save life. 
Jeremiah says (30, 23-24): ''Behold, the whirlwind of the Lord 
goeth forth with fury, a continuing whirlwind: it shall fall with 
pain upon the head of the wicked. The fierce anger of the Lord 
shall not return, until he have done it, and until he have per- 
formed the intents of his heart: in the latter days ye shall con- 
sider it." 

But suppose upon Christ's return the Jew reject him the 
second time. The Master could judge everybody else, and put 
a curse upon the Jew or on his account upon the earth, until he 
was willing to be cleansed, and the Almighty would be within 
his grant, though postponed until the Jews' convenience. Mean- 
time, every Jew, would be as a leper upon the earth. 

The 25th and 26th verses of the 28th Ezekiel are significant. 
These do not refer to any tribe of the Hebrews, or that they 
shall be brought hack to the promised land, nor does it say that 
the land which I "have given to my servant Jacob," is the old 
Holy Land, but does say; "When I shall have gathered the house 
of Israel from the people among whom they are (not have been) 
scattered (not necessarily among all nations), and shall be sanc- 
tified in them in the sight of the heathen (in Christ's second 
coming), then shall they dwell in their land that I have given 
to my servant Jacob." 

"And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses 
(not be unsettled), and pknt vineyards; etc." 

The 29th Ezekiel to the 17th verse, I take to be the same as 
the 20th Revelation, being the chaining of the Devil (Pope- 
Egyptians), . . . the forty years of Ezekiel for the Egyp- 
tian?^, or Papacy to get to the promised land, being similar to 
the same time in getting through their wilderness to the prom- 
ised land. 

In the 30th Ezekiel verse 15: "And I will pour my fury upon 
Sin, the strength of Egypt; and I will cut off the multitude of 
No." Sin was a station in the Tsraelitish wilderness wanderings, 
where they murmured "for the bread and the flesh-pots of 
Egypt;" No, was Memphis, the residence of the Pharaoh, or 
Pope. Noph and No are the same reference. 

"And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the 
world for a witness unto all nations; (not that all nations shall 
be evangelized, which is impossible while under governments 



51 

committing adultery with the Serpent Papacy); and then shall 
the end come. When ye therefore shall see the abomination of 
desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy 
place (the Papacy entrenched in the U. S. and Mohammedanism 
turning from despotism — double symbol), Then let them which 
be in Judaea (U. S.) fiee into the mountains: . . . For then 
shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning 
of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. Behold, I have 
told you before. . . . And then shall appear the sign of the 
Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes (nations) of 
the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in 
the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. . . . Now 
learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, 
and putteth forth leaves, ye know that the summer is nigh: So 
likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is 
near, even at the doors. . . . But as the days of Noe were, 
so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the 
d lys that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, 
marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered 
into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them 
all away (symbol of pestilence we have); so shall also the com- 
ing of the Son of man be. . . . Therefore be ye also ready: 
for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. Who 
then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord (who hath 
gone into a 'far country,' and) hath made ruler over his house- 
hold, to give them meat in due season? Blessed is that servant, 
(nation) whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing'' — 
Mattheiv 24- 

Prophetic expositors seem generally to agree that Moham- 
medanism is symbolized in the ''False Prophet" and the "abom- 
ination of desolation," and both terms are most apt. In 1880 
Collom figured by the prophecies that "the abomination of deso- 
lation" would stand in the holy place in 1908, and we all know 
what Turkey did in that year. Her executive ("Holy of Holies,"- 
"Holy Place," national power) changed from a despotism to 
the opposite principle. He also figured the "cleansing of the 
sanctuary" to begin in 1908 (symbolical of Israel-United States), 
but I think he erred, as I notice he does not t-^ke into account 
the birth or Christ into his kingdom some three and one-half 
years prior to our present calendar, which add that much more 
to "the times of the Gentiles," leaving that date at 1912 or 1913, 
if he reckons otherwise correctly. Election in 1912 and inaugu- 
ration in 1913, three and one-half years. He also figures the 
coming of Christ before the year 1923 A. D. If the action of 



52 

Turkey be accepted as fulfillment of prophecy on the date fore- 
cast by Mr. Collom, his other dates command most respectful 
consideration for approximate fulfillment. 

^'Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the 
weakness of God is stronger than men. . . . But God hath 
(heretofore) chosen the foolish things of the world to con- 
found the wise; and God hath (heretofore) chosen the weak 
things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 
And base things of the world, and things which are despised, 
hath God (heretofore) chosen, yea, and things which are not, 
to bring to nought things that are; That no flesh should glory in 
his presence. . . . That, according as it is written, He that 
glorieth, let him glory in the Lord." — 1 Cor. 1, 25-31. 

I do not presume to Divine inspiration. If in His inscrutable 
purpose. He be pleased to confirm me in the above passage, 
to his glory, in service to mankind and to my country; that I be 
made heir to the ''Great Purpose" of the immortal Lincoln, I 
am honored, beyond all that I had ever hoped, or thought, by 
Him, ''who shall reign from sea (Atlantic) to sea (Pacific) and 
from the rivers (the country distinguished by rivers having 
most, notable rivers) to the ends of the earth." 

The purposes of God, I conceive to be immutable; otherwise 
he is not a perfect God, and can not appeal to the finite — or the 
scientific. 

As the finite can not be the infinite, so man can not live in the 
presence of the infinite, but may approach it within the limits 
set by the infinite, yet attain all the bliss possible to the finite. 
When the finite is willing .to live within that limit he has 
attained Heaven; either to pass to an intermediate state and 
there await it, or here, with the transfiguration, to bring or 
greet it, "at the time appointed." Then Heaven becomes the 
Garden of Eden restored, the "new heaven and new earth," of 
Revelation; in every way tempered in climate, and provisioned 
to the highest enjoyment of man. The Garden of Eden then, 
was not a failure, but the first demonstration of man's free 
moral agency; only a failure because free moral agency was true. 
So all subsequent history, is not failure of God'splan, a passing 
of the time appointed, or the "Mistakes of Moses," but historical 
landmarks, and stones of inheritance set along the highway 
from one Garden of Eden, the symbolical; to the other Garden 
of Eden — the accomplished. Along that highway, man has had 
the choice of blessing or curse. To enjoy "the pleasures of sin 
for a season," "for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt 
surely die;" or forbear idolatry, having "respect to the recom- 
pence of reward." Prophecy then could only be fruited through 



53 

analogy and symbol; it could not be written a literal sign 
board, else man's place in the plan would make him the knowing 
fulfillment of prophecy, instead of the unconscious vehicle; a 
work of knowledge, instead of a work of grace; of knowledge 
instead of the essence of things hoped for. 

The Bible, then, becomes an inspired hand or Gyide book to 
the Garden of Eden, the "new heaven and new earth,'* of Revel- 
ation. The two so-called Testaments, are the two ways offered 
to man to work out his salvation; first collectively or nation- 
ally, and under the new dispensation individually; the latter 
involving the former; the goal, the same. 

All this being true, the Bible as a guide must grow in interest 
as the goal of Eden nears, for all the Guide Book, must, in the 
last analysis, focus on the "new heaven and nev»' earth." It 
follows then that by symbol" and analogy, of these landmarks 
and way-marks set up by God, to and with the "new heaven and 
new earth," by him being worked out through sifting, orderly, 
leisurely, human instrumentality, can we get a glimpse, of that 
ultimate purpose, in the which those remaining, "shall be 
changed, in the twinkling of an eye," (prophetic-not instant) 
and behold with the human eye, the "new earth," of which it 
hath not entered into the heart of man to conceive. 

Man then works out his own destiny, nationally and individ- 
ually; through idolatory; unto death, or through faith, unto 
"inheritance." 

Therein, in the second coming of Christ, will be demonstrated, 
the power, the wisdom and grace of God, the infallibility of the 
Scriptures, and the gracious office of Divine prophecy. In that 
day, man is utterly without defense. 

In the first verse of the Bible is the creation of the earth, in 
the last verse of the Old Testament a suspended curse, and in 
the last verse of the New Testament, a benediction. Eden 
typifies the Millenium; man's heaven; a family relation. The 
Old Israelitish theocracy grown to a democracy, and a kingdom, 
is a symbol of America, grown from the theocracy of the town- 
meeting of the conscientious Pilgrim fathers, to a democracy, or 
republic, to be the Kingdom of Christ, reigning in Israel. In 
the second chapter of Genesis, and the 11th to the 15th verses 
is a description of the Garden of Eden by lands and rivers. 
The rivers are numbered, and the description when analyzed, 
will show the Garden of Eden to have been in the empires, 
which at one time, or another covered Europe, Asia, and Africa. 
Cush, Canaan, David and Solomon, Judah and Israel, Assj^rian, 
Babylonian, Persian, Grecian and Roman Empires. The four- 
teenth verse is peculiar, if not significant; "And the name of 



54 

the third river is Hiddekel (which I am unable to trace); that is 
it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth 
river IS Euphrates." A glance at Ass3Tia shows that the 
Euphrates rises on the Northwest border of Assyria, and ''goeth 
toward the east of Assyria," and becomes its extreme Southeast 
border, which identifies the river Hiddekel as the Euphrates, 
then emphasizes with the assertion, ''and the fourth river is 
Euphrates." Now the Assyrian empire was contained within 
the Babylonian empire, and so contained in outline makes a 
suggestive outline of the United States. The City of Babylon, 
was upon the river Euphrates. 

Jesus Christ came in poverty, obscurity and political weak- 
ness, to a small political division of earth; he will return 
with retinue, in majesty and power; to broken Palestine? No, 
to the greatest power, apostate, yet in its organization and pro- 
fession built upon His Divine plan for Israel, and through which 
as His ''rod of iron," he will "rule the nations." — Rev., 19-15. 

Setting out the birth in prophecy of the United States,- its 
history and translation from the theocracy of Old Israel (the 
Ancient of days), and grown to a Republic, I purpose to logi- 
cally show by Scripture, in its aptness of symbol and expres- 
sion. To do this intelligently to the reader, it is well that I 
indicate the oftest recurring symbols by which the United States 
is to be recognized, and also the powers, by symbols, with 
which we have to do for the brief life allowed us as a nation. 

Babylon was named from the projected tower of Babel. The 
United States inviting and gathering all nations to her citizen- 
ship, finds in Babylon her symbol. "The antithesis between 
Babylon and Jerusalem enters largely into the prophetic lan- 
guage of Scripture." 

Likewise, civil and religious liberty regulated by the law of 
God, originating in Israel as a nation, that name, Jerusalem, 
New Jerusalem, Tribe of Judah, Zion, Sion, will be found fre- 
quent symbols employed for the United States, to be Israel 
restored. Time and space admitting, subdivisions of Old Israel 
in part at least, could be met by geographical resemblances in 
the United States. 

Under our present organization I am persuaded, we have our 
most important future relations with the Papacy; also known 
in some prophetic connections in Scripture, as Babylon, Baby- 
lon the Great, Egypt, the Philistines, the Beast, the Harlot, and 
the Chaldeans (priest and medical arm). 

Thus equipped the other symbols to be noted as occurring, 
we endeavor first, to identify the United States with Babylon. 

"Babylon,country of, is generallycalled Babylon, from the name 



55 

of its first city, Babel; or Chaldea,iTom the name of its inhabitants 
. . . the lands were watered by means of canals (arid lands), 
trenches, and various sorts of engines, provided in great abund- 
ance for the purpose. The soil naturally rich, and thus care- 
fully supplied with moisture in the driest seasons, surpassed 
even that of Egypt in fertility, and is said to have generally 
yielded from one hundred to three hundred fold. Its vegetable 
productions grew to so extraordinary a size, that Herodotus 
declines giving a particular description of them, lest he should 
incur the charge of exaggeration; but he mentions as one in- 
stance, that the leaves of the wheat and barley were four fingers 
in breadth. It afforded everywhere a viscious clay, easily formed 
by the furnace, or even by the sun, into the hardest bricks; and 
the naptha, or bitumen, which was extremely abundant, fur- 
nished the firmest of cements. . . . Three separate tribunals, 
however, were appointed to administer justice. . . . These 
sacerdotal tribes, who have been called by way of distinction^ 
Chaldean or Chaldees, were the philosophers as well as the 
priests of their country (as are the sacerdotals of the Papacy). 
They pretended to have derived their learning from the first 
instructor , Oannes, who sprung from the primogenial egg; who 
was half man or god, and half fish (as the Pope pretends tem- 
poral and spirtual power of land and sea); who appeared in the 
Red Sea, and taught the knowledge of letters and civilization 
in general. This learning, as far as it went, they studied very 
minutely, and handed it down by tradition from father and son 
(like the Papacy), with any little addition and improvement. 
It consisted chiefly of some absurd opinions about the forma- 
tion and shape of the earth (Copernicus, Giordano Bruno, and 
Galileo), a few astronomical observations, and a confused mass 
of astrological rules, etc." — Brown. I thus here identify the 
Papacy with the Chaldean priesthood of Babylon, to show that 
other analogy, that as the Chaldean priests were entrenched in 
Babylon, so the Papacy entrenched in our Government is prac- 
tically the Government religion of the United States. The 
empire of Babylon ''may be considered as the first great mon- 
archy (nation) of which any records are to be found in history. 
. . . Thus there may be said to have been two distinct kirg- 
doms in Babylon; one preceding and the other following the 
Assyrian (Papal) empire (control). Or, rather, more properly 
speaking, there were three great eras of the same monarchy." — 
Dr. Gillies-Brown. 

"The City of Babylon was brought to such a degree of magnif- 
icence and splendor as rendered it one of the wonders of the 
world. 'Babylon stood in the midst of a large plain in a very 



56 

deep and fruitful soil. It was divided into two parts by the 
river Euphrates (Mississippi) which flowed through the city 
(nation) from north to south.' . . . The walls (defenses) of 
Babylon were of extraordinary strength. On each side of the 
river Euphrates was built a quay, or high wall (Mississippi levees). 
There was also a remarkable bridge thrown over the river near 
the middle of the city (St. Louis). . . . 

"In order to prevent any inconvenience from the swelling of 
the Euphrates, two canals were cut from that river, at a con- 
siderable distance above the town, which carried off the super- 
abundant waters into the tigris (New Orleans drainage canals). 
From the place where these canals commenced, down the sides 
of the river, both above and below the city, immense banks were 
constructed to confine the stream still more effectually within 
its channel, and to prevent still more completely all danger of 
an inundation. 

"In order to facilitate the construction of these works, an 
immense lake was dug on the west side of Babylon, about forty 
miles square (the size of New Orleans drainage district) and 
thirty-five deep, into which the river was turned by a canal, 
till the banks were completed; and it was then restored to its 
former course. This lake continued afterwards to receive an- 
nually a fresh supply of water from the Euphrates, and was 
rendered very serviceable, by means of sluices, for watering the 
lands which were situated below it. At the two ends of the 
bridge over the Euphrates were two magnificent palaces (capitol 
or municipality) which had a subterranean communication with 
each other by means of a vault or tunnel under the bed of the 
river (like at Chicago and New York). From Jeremiah's threat 
of drying up the sea of Babylon, we learn that there was a con- 
siderable lake or reservoir in the interior of the city; for to such 
large receptacles of water the appellation of sea was and still is 
applied in the East. Undoubtedly the water of this lake and of 
these canals being furnished by the Euphrates, the name of that 
river might be continued to them in a general sense (as Lake 
Michigan and the canals or mouths and bayous of the Mississippi 
are connected with it). ... In this temple of Belus, or, as 
some say, on its summit, was a golden image forty feet in height, 
and equal in value to three and a half millions sterling,' (which I 
understand is not far from the actual value of the property held 
by the Papacy in Washington, or District of Columbia. Belus 
was a river of Palestine, also another name for the temple of 
Babel, the means by which after forsaking God, it was proposed 
to get to heaven by the nation, and it is typified with us by 
Roosevelt taking 'In God We Trust' from our coins, to show he 



57 

for us had adopted the Papacy as the power in which we trust 
nationally.) 

"There was, besides, such a multitude of other statues and 
ssicred utensils, that the whole of the treasures contained in this 
single edifice, has been estimated at forty-two millions (approx- 
imately $203,000,000, which will hardly be found more than the 
Papacy has here.) Many of the above statements, recorded in 
ancient authors, respecting the wonders of Babylon, are unques- 
tionably greatly exaggerated; but, after every abatement that 
can fairly be made, this city is understood to have . 
been eight times larger than London (1856) and itsappendages." — 
Gillies. ''The city of Babylon seems to have excelled in rich 
and ingenious manufactures, at a very early period in the history 
of the world; and its 'goodly garments' are mentioned 1450 
B. C." — Josh., 7-21. "The downfall and destruction of this 
proud metropolis of the ancient world, is a subject so much 
dwelt upon by the prophets, that before taking leave of the 
article, it may not be improper to take a cursory glance at some 
of the more important particulars concerning it. Enriched with 
the spoils of the East (Philippines) and exulting in the day of 
her prosperity, Babylon seemed horn to command the world. 
She said in her heart, according to the language of the prophet, 
{Isa., 47, 7-8 ec) 'I am the queen of nations, and my reign is 
forever. lam; and there is none else beside me. 1 sun exempted 
from that vicissitude and decline which are incident to other 
nations. My destiny shall survive coeval with those stars in 
which the observers of the heavens have read the records of my 
perpetual duration.' But her pride and luxury, her cruelty to 
the Jews during their captivity at Babylon, and the sacrilegious 
impiety of her monarch, (Roosevelt) wrought her downfall. She 
had been the instrument of the Divine VENGEANCE to punish 
guilty kingdoms; (as we punished Spain, and as we as his "rod 
of iron" will be used after his coming) and the time was ap- 
proaching when 'the Lord was to break the staff ivherewith he 
had smote so many nations,' (as our example of liberty has pro- 
moted the same idea in many nations to their smiting and unrest) 
and destroy the iceapon of war which had been drunk with the 
blood of the people (in their sale to the Papacy). More than a 
a hundred years (we are a little over a hundred years old) before 
the accomplishment of this prediction, Isaiah foretold the doom 
that was pronounced against Babylon, named the prince who 
was to fulfil this prophecy before he was born (as Ezekiel indi- 
cates Roosevelt and his "ambassadors to Egypt") described the 
minutest circumstances (as did Ezekiel with Roosevelt) 
relating to the siege and taking of the city, and painted 



58 

the perpetual desolation of this once flourishing cap- 
ital in every succeeding age.'' — Isa., 13: Jer., 45: 
Isaiah has composed an ode on the occasion, which for elegance 
of disposition, sublimity of sentiment, boldness of coloring, 
beauty of force of expression, stands unrivalled among all the 
monuments of genius which antiquity has transmitted to mod- 
ern times. A chorus of Jews is first introduced, expressing 
their astonishmerit at the sudden downfall of Babylon, and 
their exultation at the unexpected revolution in their affairs^ 
by the destruction ot their tyrants (a symbol of our future). 
"riow hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city (United States) 
ceased! Jehovah hath broken the roc/ (political power) of the 
wicked (apostate America), and the sceptre (sovereignty) of the 
rulers (Uncle Sam and the Pope). He (the Papacy) who smote 
the people in wrath with a continual stroke, (through disease 
breeding system of medicine), he that ruled the nations in ven- 
geance (with vengeance), is persecuted, and none hindereth. The 
oppressed kingdoms and their rulers, denoted in the prophetic 
style by 'fir trees and cedars of Lebanon,' are now next repre- 
sented as shouting with joy, and the earih with its inhabitants 
triumphing over the fall of the tyrant (the Pope). 'The whole 
earth is at rest, is quiet, they break forth into a joyful shout: 
even the fir trees (monarchs in political league with the Pope) 
rejoice over thee, the cedars of Lebanon (United States), since 
thou art fallen, no feller (man with axe, disturber-destroyer) is 
come up against us.' The scene is then changed, and a new set 
of personages introduced The regions of the dead are laid 
open, and Hades represented as rousing up the shades of the 
departed monarchs. They rise up from their thrones to meet 
the king of Babylon (political entity of the United States), and 
insult him* on his being reduced to the same humble and ca- 
lamitous condition with themselves. This is the boldest figure 
that has ever been attempted in poetical composition, and is 
executed with astonishing conciseness and sublimity. Conceive 
the idea of an immense subterranean vault, a vast gloomy cav- 
ern, all around the sides of which there are cells, in the manner 
of the Jewish sepulchres, to receive the dead bodies: here the 
deceased monarchs lie in distinguished state, suitable to their 
former rank, each on his couch, with his arms beside him, and 
his chiefs around him. These illustrious shades rise at once 
from their couches, and advance from the entrance of the cav- 
ern to meet the king of Babylon (Uncle Sam), and to deride him 
on his fall (Fancy Babylon, Nineveh, Tyre, and the Roman 
Empire, greeting with the warnings of Washington, Jefferson, 
Madison, and Lincoln, and pointing to the pistol wounds of Lin- 



59 

coin and McKinley). Hades from beneath is moved for thee to 
meet thee at thy coming: it rouseth up the departed shades, 
the mighty of the earth: it raiseth from their thrones all the 
kings of all nations: they triumph over thee. Art thou even 
thou too, become weak as we? Art thou made like unto us? 

'Is thy pride brought down to the grave, the sound of thy 
sprightly instruments? Is the vermin become thy couch, and 
the earth-worm thy covering? The Jewish people (Americans) 
are again brought forward, uttering an exclamation in the form 
of a funeral dirge over the'fallen tyrant. 'How art thou fallen 
from heaven, Lucifer (apostate), son of the morning! how 
art thou cut off from the earth, thou who didst subdue the 
nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, / will ascend into 
heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God, I will 
be like the Most High. Yet thou art brought down to th£ 
mansions of the dead, and to the sides of the pit.' Strangers 
are next introduced, who discover the corpse of the King 
of Babylon, cast out and disfigured among the common slain. 
They bitterly reproach him for his desolating ambition, 
which brought him to such an ignominious end, and de- 
nounce vengeance on his race and posterity. Is this the 
man that made the earth to tremble, that shook the kingdoms? 
that made the world as a. wilderness, and destroyed the cities? 
(''Wilderness" is the first symbol of the United States, whose 
example heretofore of civil liberty is making all the world "as a 
wilderness," destroying the cities — nations.)' 

"All the Kings of the nations lie in glory, every one in his 
own house. But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abom- 
inable branch; as a carcass trodden under foot. Thou shalt not 
be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed the 
land, and slain the people." I undertake here to predict that 
Theodore Roosevelt will be the most execrated and utterly de- 
spised, by the popular voice of the people, of any man who ever 
lived in the United States. And as a traitor. "Prepare slaugh- 
ter for his children (of like character — popular government), for 
the iniquity of their fathers, that they do not rise nor possess 
the land, nor fill the face of the world with cities' (transform 
monarchies into republics). At last God himself is introduced, 
denouncing (approving) the doom of Babylon, the extirpation 
of the ro3^al family, the utter destruction of the city (politi- 
cally), its total desolation from age to age; and confirming the 
irrevocable decree by the awful solemnity of an oath. 'I 
will rise up against them saith the Lord of hosts, and I will 
cut off from Babylon the name and remnant, the son and the 
nephew (native and naturalized). It shall become (politically) 



60 

a heap of ruins, a dwelling-place for dragons, an astonishment 
and a hissing, without an inhabitant. — Isa., 14:4-25. And 
Babylon, the glory of kingdoms (nations), the beauty (coveted) 
of the Chaldees' (Papal) excellency, shall be as when God over- 
threw Sodom and Gomorrah. It shall never be inhabited 
(politically), neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to 
generation: neither shall the Arabian (deprived of their terri- 
tory by the sons of Abraham, Ishmael, and Midian. Midian here 
standing for the Papal medical arm) pitch tent there, nor 
the shepherds (Papal shepherds) make their folds there. But the 
wild beasts of the desert (Papal memories) shall lurk in its 
ruins; the houses shall be full of doleful creatures (memories); 
there shall the owls dwell (darkness) and the satyrs dance 
(peopled with myths). And the wild beasts of the island (then 
''undiscovered country'') shall cry in their desolate domes 
(National Capitol domes), and dragons in their pleasant palaces 
(Executive residence, and office). I will make it a possession 
(memory) for the bittern (a night bird 'and its usual posture is 
with the head and neck erect, and the beak pointed directly 
upwards,' like the posture of a Papal priest) and pools of water 
(holy water): and I will sweep it with a besom of destruction, 
saith the Lord of hosts. Jehovah hath sworn, surely as I have 
thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall 
it stand" — Isa., 13:19. Ch., 14. 28-24- At the precise period ap- 
pointed, this prediction was fulfilled. This great city, the glory of 
kingdoms, whose beauty, strength and magnificence made it the 
wonder of the world, has shared the ruin of Sodom and Gomorrah. 
For the space of twenty-six years after the death of Nebuchad- 
nezzar, it continued to retain its glory, and was at once the seat 
of an imperial court (the hope and ambition of the Papacy), the 
station of a numerous garrison, and the scene of a most exten- 
sive commerce. It was at length invested Sihoui 540 years B. C. 
by the victorious armies of Cyrus the Great (as we have been 
invested for years by ''Babylon the Great"). Crowded with 
troops for their defense, surrounded with such lofty walls (de- 
fenses) and furnished with provisions for twenty years (self- 
sustaining) the citizens of Babylon derided the efforts of their 
besiegers, and boasted of their impregnable situation. On the 
other hand, the conqueror of Asia ("Holy Alliance" of Europe) 
determined to subdue his only remaining rival in the empire 
of the eastern (western) world, left no expedient untried for the 
reduction of the city (U. S.). By means of palm trees (Cardi- 
nals, Bishops, and Priests; not on Palm Sunday, but every day), 
which abounded in that country, he erected d, number of towers 
(symbols of head of a city of sovereignty) higher than the walls 



61 

(seduction of ruling authority, against which other defenses are 
useless) and made many desperate attempts to carry the place 
by assault (brought on civil war, shot Lincoln and McKinley). 
He next drew a line of circumvallation (''from the Latin vallo, 
or vallum, vallus, denotes properly the wall or rampart (Roose- 
velt was our rampart we thought) thrown up; but as the ram- 
part is formed by entrenchme^it, and the trench makes a part of 
the fortification, the word is applied to both" — Webster), 
around the city, divided his army into twelve parts (through 
the 12 original colonies grown to the U. S.), appointed each of 
them to guard the trenches for a month, and resolved to starve 
his enemy to a surrender (that is, if you Republicans or you, 
Mr. Roosevelt, want political power, you must give us certain 
things for our votes — one thing, you must put our medical 
arm in possession of a Cabinet position, as Secretary of a 
National Health Department; if you don't we will go over to 
the Democrats and get it there. We have the balance of 
power). After spending two years in this blockade (as every 
national politician knows McKinley did block him, the Pope), 
he was presented with an opportunity of effecting his 
purpose by stratagem. Having learned that a great festival 
was to be celebrated in the city (the Buffalo, N. Y., Expo- 
sition — Roosevelt the alibi — in the woods) and that it was custo- 
mary with the Babylonians (treason), on that occasion, to 
spend the night in drunk nness and debauchery, he posted a 
part of his troops close by the spot where the river Euphrates 
entered the city (John Ireland, Archbishop of St. Paul), and 
another at the place where it went out (P. L. Chapelle, Arch- 
bishop of New Orleans; the Pacifier oi the Philippines), with 
orders to march along the channel, whenever they should find 
it fordable. He then detached a third party (Czolgosz) to open 
the head of the canal, which led to the great lake already de- 
scribed and, at the same time admit the nrer into the trenches 
(promote Roosevelt, whom they subsequently proved they had 
properly sizedup if indeed they had not concluded with before), 
which he had drawn around the city. By these means, the 
river was so completely drained by midnight (50 prophetic 
years from 1864 — when the medical arm siege was begun — 1914), 
that his troops easily found their way along its bed (the bed 
of the river of the national life) ; and the gates which used to 
(under Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Lincoln, Grant, Harrison 
and McKinley) shut up the passages from its banks, having 
been left open in consequence of the general disorder (afflicting 
Roosevelt) they encountered no obstacle whatever in their prog- 
ress. Having thus penetrated into the very heart of the city, 



62 

and met, according to agreement, at the gates of the palace, 
(Executive office) they easily overpowered the guards (Con- 
gress); cut to pieces all that opposed them', slew the king 
Belshazzar (the Republican party, being the representative of 
the sovereignty — with the steamroller — the twin despot of the 
big stick) while attempting to make resistance; and received (in 
Taft) the submission ("my dear friends,'') within a few hours, 
(prophetic) (''So marked has been the increase in importance 
of the medical profession in governmental agencies (for divert- 
ing Federal money to the Pope) that the (Pope's) doctors them- 
selves (represented by the American Medical Association, a 
boycott association in spirit, and formerly at law) have organ- 
ized a movement for the unification of all agencies in the Federal 
government used to promote the public health (?) into one 
bureau or department/' W. H. Taft, 2-22-'09. Cleveland, Ohio, 
April 16 (1909). 'A national movement among the Knights of 
Columbus of America to secure the appointment of another 
member of President Taft's Cabinet, to be known as the Secre- 
tary of Health has been started here.' — Washington Times. 
Notice this don't say the Federal Health; leaving open the 
inference that it does mean the Pope's health.) 

From this period, Babylon ceased to be the metropolis of a 
kingdom, and its grandeur very rapidly decayed. Its citizens 
were very impatient under the Persian (Papal) yoke; and their 
pride was particularly by the removal of the imperial seat to 
Susa (''the city of lillies," Rome). Taking advantage of the dis- 
orders in Persia (Papacy), in consequence of the sudden death of 
Cambyses (Papal influence) and of the massacre of the Magians 
(Papal doctors), they continued during the space of four years, 
to make secret preparations for a revolt. At length, in the fifth 
year of Darius Hystaspes, they openly raised the standard of 
rebellion; and thus drew upon themselves the whole force of the 
Persian (Papal) empire. Determined upon a desperate defense, 
and desirous to make their provision last as long as possible, 
they adopted the barbarous resolution of destroying (politi- 
cally) all such persons in the city as could (would) be of no 
service during the siege. Having sacrificed the (political) lives 
of their friends, and resolutely regardless of their own, they 
successfully resisted all the strength and stratagems of the 
Persians (Papists), for the space of eighteen months, ard fell 
al length into the hands of Darius, by the following extraor- 
dinary instance of fortitude in one of his officers. 

Zophyrus (Archbishop John Ireland), one of the principal 
noblemen in the Persian (Papal) court, appeared in the presence 
of his prince, covered with blood, deprived of his nose and ears, 



63 

torn with stripes, and wounded in various parts of his body; 
unfolded to the astonished monarch his design of deserting to 
the enemy, and arranged his future plans of operations. 

Approaching the walls of the city, he was carried before the 
governor, detailed the cruel treatment which he professed to 
have received from Darius; offered his services to the Babylo- 
nians, who were well acquainted with his rank and abilities; 
acquired their confidence by several successful sallies; obtained, 
at length the chief command of their forces, and thus easily 
found means to betray the city to his (Divine) master. As soon 
as Darius was in possession of Babylon, he ordered its hundrefl 
gates (Committee of One Hundred on National Health) and its 
impregnable walls to be demolished; put to death three thou- 
sand of those who had been principally concerned in the revolt 
(Papal priests); and sent fifty thousand loomen from different 
parts of his empire, to supply the place of those who had been 
so cruelly destroyed at the commencement of the siege. Xerxes, 
the successor of Darius (Uncle Sam), returning from his inglori- 
ous invasion of Greece (fooled by the old Grecian horse trick), 
passed through the city of Babylon; and, partly from hatred to 
the Sabian worship (mongrel christians), partly with a view to 
recruit his treasures, plundered the temple of Belus (Papal 
property) of its immense wealth, and then laid its lofty tower 
(authorities) in ruins." — Jones {Calrnet, a monk of the Bene- 
dictine order). 

The ''Magians" above referred to, were an ancient caste of 
Persian priests, symbolic of our ''regular" physicians, and upon 
which Brown says: "Besides in the prophecy respecting Cyrus, 
the intention of Almighty God in recording the name of the 
monaich in an inspired hook, and showing beforehand that he 
had chosen him to overturn the Babylonian empire, is expressly 
mentioned as having respect to two great objects; first, the 
deliverance of Israel, and, second, the making knoicn his supreme 
divinity among the nations oi the earth. We quote from Lowth's 
translation: — 

'For the sake of my servant Jacob, 

And of Israel my chosen, 

I have even call^ thee by thy name; 

I have surnamed thee, though thou knew^est me not. 

I am Jehovah, and none else. 

Beside me there is no God; 

I will gird thee, though thou hast not known me. 

That they may knoiv, from the rising of the sun, 

And from the west, that there is none beside me/ 
"^'It was therefore intended by this proceeding on the part of 



64 

Providence to teach, not only Cyrus, but the people of his vast 
empire, and surrounding nations, I. That the God of the Jews 
was Jehovah, the self-subsistent, the eternal God; 2. That he 
was God alone, there being no DeiY^/ beside himself; and, 3. That 
good and evil represented by light and darkness, were neither 
iiidependent nor eternal (scientific) subsistences, but his great 
instruments, and under his control/' — Brown. 

''This mighty city declined very rapidly under the successors 
of Alexander; and in the year 294 B. C. was almost exhausted 
of its inhabitants by Seleucus Nicator, who built in its neigh- 
borhood the city of Seleuci or NEW Babylon. From the city of 
Seleuci (New Jerusalem), St. Paul and Barnabas embarked for 
Cyprus. We observe that Cyprus is a large island, hence a 
proper symbol of the world, being entirely surrounded by water. 
In the 21st Chapter of Revelation, we have the new heaven and 
the new earth, the domination of the earth by God, in the sense 
that through the Holy City (nation), the New Jerusalem, the 
nations of the earth are to be corrected, or ruled with this 'rod 
of iron.'" 'The empire of the Messiah is sometimes represented 
by a rod of iron, to show its power and its might. — Ps. 2, 9; 
Rev., 2:27; 12:5; 19:15. Rod is sometimes put, by a pastoral 
metaphor, to signify a tribe or a people: 'Remember thy congre- 
gation, which thou hast purchased of old; the rod of thine inher- 
itance, which thou hast redeemed' — Ps., 74:2. 'Israel is the rod 
of his inheritance.'^ — Jer.^ 10:16. The rod of Aaron is the staff com- 
monly used by the High-Priest.'* We then have the rod here a 
double symbol; a corrective power over other nations, and the 
spiritual power exhibited on the earth as in the days of Aaron, 
when his rod, turned into a Serpent, swallowed the Serpents of 
the magicians of Egypt; the Egyptian priesthood-symbol of the 
Papal priesthood. We then have in the New Babylon, the 
preparations made for the evangelization under the more imme- 
diate supervision of the Almighty's demonstration of power, 
following the preaching of the word to all nations as a witness.. 

From this city of Seleuci (New Babylon, New Jerusalem), St. 
Paul and Barnabas embarked for Cyprus, our symbol of the 
coming evangelization. 

Of St. Paul, "favored with the peculiar grace and blessing of 
God," "among the greatest orators of antiquity" the Scriptures 
testify abundantly. But once does he appear to have been 
involved in grammatical difficulty, and that will turn out to be 
another of our mistakes, in utterly misapprehending both St. 
Peter and St. Paul, for St. Peter was through making mistakes 
then. "As also in all his (St. Paul's) epistles, speaking of these 
things (the coming of Christ); in which are some things hard tO' 



65 

be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable 
wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own de- 
structio7i.'' — ^ Peter, 3:16. 

The verse referred to of Paul's is 1 Cor., 2:13. So Peter was 
right, and Paul was right, for Revelation has been written on, 
and dates made of the coming of our Lord, probably in every 
generation since it was written. Even the Church then, expect- 
ing Christ in that generation as promised, mistaking the symbol, 
which time has rendered more literally as dispensation. ''The 
difficulty consists not in Paul's manner of treating the subjects, 
but in the subjects themselves, when compared with the limits 
of the human understanding." ''Paul's powerful and diversified 
character of mind seems to have combined the separate excel- 
lencies of all the other sacred authors; the loftiness of Isaiah; 
the devotion of David; the pathos of Jeremiah; the vehemence 
of Ezekiel; the didactic gravity of Moses; the elevated morality 
and practical good sense, though somewhat more highly colored, 
of St. James, the sublime conceptions and deep views of St. John; 
the noble energies and burning zeal of St. Peter. To these he 
added his own Strong argumentative powers, depth of thought, 
and intensity of feeling" — Lyttleton. He had the Jewish charac- 
teristic oi stubbornness. His disposition did not "naturally 
qualify him for a christian, nor for a philanthropist; but least 
of all, for a quietly enduring man. He was so stubborn, nothing 
short of the voice of the Lord Jesus from the heavens — all but 
face to face, would convert him. "Formerly hasty and irritable, 
now spirited and resolved; formerly violent, now full of energy 
and enterprising; once ungovernably refractory against everything 
which obstructed him, now only persevering; once fanatical and 
morose, now only serious; once cruel, now only firm; once a 
harsh zealot, now fearing (loving) God . . . ; never weak, 
always great; in the midst of sadness and sorrow manly and 
noble; so he showed himself at his deeply moving departure 
from Miletus (Acts 20); it is like the departure of Moses, like 
the resignation of Samuel, sincere and heartfelt, full of self 
recollection, and in the midst of pain full of dignity." No won- 
der God put off the evangelization of the world until he could 
get the Jew to help him. In his present trial he has so few stub- 
born in the right that it is made painfully plain that without 
the Jew the world can not be evangelized. In my humble opin- 
ion the Jew will be a mighty factor to that end. Like Saul, he 
will, converted, become a Paul in zeal and power. "That, how- 
ever which we principally perceive in Paul, and from which his 
whole actions and operations become intelligible, is the peculiar 
impression which the idea of a universal religion has wrought 



66 

upon his mind. This idea of establishing a religion for the world 
had not so profoundly engrossed any soul, nowhere kindled so 
much vigor, and projected it into such a constant energy . . . 
it was a spark of the Divine light which enkindled him. . . . 

It was this which never allowed him to remain in Palestine 
and in Syria, which so powerfully impelled him to foreign parts. 
The portion of some others was Judea and its environs; but his 
mission was directed to the nations, and his allotment was the 
whole of the heathen world. Thus he begun his career among 
the different nations of Asia Minor, and when this limit also 
became too confined for him, he went with equal confidence to 
Europe, among other nations, ordinances, sciences, and customs; 
and here likewise he finally, with the same indefatigable spirit, 
circulated his plans, even to the pillars of Hercules. In this 
manner Paul prepared the overthrow of two religions, that of 
his ancestors, and that of the heathens." 

With creation, the sifting process to get the kind of people 
which would make a heaven was begun. Two requirements 
were necessary to make heaven: Faith and obedience, supple- 
menting, fruit in fidelity, which is the ideal. In the first sifting 
process out of all the persons on the earth, just eight persons 
were found who approached the conditions. With that start 
after the flood, another sifting process began; the Jews were 
called of God, symbol of the first trial under Adam. After 
demonstration of power and favor to us marvellous, the Jews 
turn to idols, call for a king, and go into political bondage in 
their first national rebellion. But restoration is promised, in 
the appearance of the Messiah; and he is rejected. But the 
strange promise after a forfeiture, of an inheritance yet to 
come, is paralleled in the spectacle of a proud, stubborn, and 
rebellious nationality, fighting the Almighty, whose love and 
power had been so amply demonstrated to them. Yet not- 
withstanding these three predominate traits of the Jews, they, 
•of themselves, demonstrate the wisdom and goodness of God, 
in that they show of these three ingredients, rightly directed, 
the secret of life lies. From creation man has been a free moral 
agent with ample liberty, restrained by law only on those things 
hurtful to him. Upon this condition he has come down to this 
time and condition of the world. The great racial and cla3S 
distinctions of both Testaments are the Jew and the Gentile. 
What has the sifting process of the ages produced in results, for, 
*'by their fruits ye shall know them." Simply that a few Jews 
accepted and preached Christ, but nationally or racially, they 
rejected him, and though nationally disorganized and scattered, 
but with a fidelity to conviction, which challenges the admira- 



67 

tion of the world, they have shamed the Church of Christ for 
nearly two thousand years for its lack of fidelity. Today the 
world is no better than at the flood or the coming of Christ, 
though she professes to be. In apparent sin she may be more 
refined, but in her lack of fidelity, she has now an element of 
which she then made no profession. The same warning is given 
us as Noah gave against the flood, and we go to impending 
judgment to save a ''remnant." 

If but one family of Jews be saved as the ''remnant" proph- 
esied, God's promise to Jacob will be fulfilled. Under all the 
most adverse circumstances deviltry has devised, the Jew has 
demonstrated his strength. Out of all the ages he alone prac- 
tically, has demonstrated when too late, national fidelity. His 
racial characteristics, make the Jew a strong man in a bad cause, 
or a strong man in a good cause. This Jewish characteristic oi 
fidelity, is necessary to the evangelization of the world; hence 
the Jew will become an instrument of his power. Thus God is 
justified in his inviolate promise to the only nationality, show- 
ing the first requisite to a covenant with the Almighty. The 
Gentile Church has failed on this test of fidelit}^, as to the first 
three commandments. St. Paul is the symbol of the Jews part 
in the evangelization of the world. Paul's plan of establishing 
a religion for the world, was balked, because the Gentiles when 
right, were not stubborn enough in it. The Almighty has 
matured Paul's plans. In every nation of the earth, the skirm- 
ish line of Jews has been arranged; they are on the ground; and 
when the second call comes, ''Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou 
me?" the work will begin. The Jew not a nation, will be an in- 
ternational factor in evangelization of the nations. Barnabas, 
a Levite, accompanied Paul to Cyprus. There is an uncanonical 
epistle attributed to Barnabas; "it seems to have been written 
to the converted Jews, who were too zealously addicted to the 
observance of the law of Moses. It is divided into two parts. 
In the first, he shows the unprofitableness of the old law, and 
the necessity of the incarnation and birth of Christ. He 
cites, and explains allegorically, several passages relating to 
the ceremonies and precepts of the law of Moses, 
applying them to Jesus Christ and his law. The 
second part is a moral instruction, handled under the notion of 
two wAvs, the one of light, the other of darkness; the one under 
the conduct of the angels of God, the other under the guidance 
of the angels of Satan. The way of the light is a summary of 
what a Christian is to do, in order to obtain eternal happiness; and 
the wa)^ of darkness is a representation of those particular sins 
which exclude men from the kingdom of God." It is evident 



68 

that parts of this epistle not here noticed, have been garbled 
and so rendered as to exclude it from the accepted Scriptures. 
The part i have noticed, which proclaim the life of Barnabas, 
and the fact that this epistle was first published in Greek from 
a copy of Father Hugh Menard, a Benedictine Monk, the order 
in the Papal Church most largely responsible for the present 
system of '^regular" medicine, woulcf sufficiently account for its 
being poisoned. This poisoning oi this epistle, probably removed 
from the Scriptures, the witness of any Jew connected in any way 
with their priesthood being a Christian evangelist, and this I 
suspect accounts for its mutilation. For the fact established, 
beyond per adventure, the apostolic successiofi antedating Peter, 
would threateii the claims of the Papal church. If it be true, 
then the Pope's pretension to apostolic succession is more ri- 
diculous than ever, for the apostolic succession would be by 
Barnabas, the Levite, run clear back to the original Jewish priest- 
hood, leaving the Pope on the sidetrack, any way he figures it. 
If there is any such thing as an apostolic succession, outside of 
Jesus Christ, 'Vhom he (God) hath appointed heir.of all things;" 
If there is an apostolic succession, Barnabas, who was in the old 
priesthood at the time he recognized Christ, and became his 
apostle; Barnabas has the double title as between Peter and 
Barnabas. The essence of salvation is the same under both dis- 
pensations, theform of sacrificeis changed, and the form of some of 
the symbols. The doctrines were sought to be explained, because 
. the world being more scientific, needed scientific, logical reasons 
for faith and obedience. Philosophical science got the logical 
exposition; whereupon each sect grabbed a part of the husk, 
and while they fed upon it, as did the prodigal son, the corn 
was cast to the swine. 

The great question of the apostolic succession, is the question 
which is now to start for the final solution. It appears to be a 
question of veracity between Jesus Christ and the Pope, and if 
it should happen that the Pope is not Jesus Christ come the 
second time, or the ''branch," of Scripture, it will be an inter- 
esting question, what sect is in the apostolic succession. 

As we leave the symbol of Babylon, we note that Eden, is ''a 
province in the East, on the banks of the Euphrates, where 
Paradise was situated." ''Eden was remarkable for a river which 
issued from it; in like manner, John sees in the Heavenly Eden 
a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, issuing from the 
throne of God (in heaven) and the lamb, (upon his throne on 
earth in the New Jerusalem?)" — Rev., 22:1. "In the midst of the 
street of it, (central-Mississippi Valley) and on either (both) 
sides of the river, was there the tree of life, which bear twelve 



69 

manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month; and the 
leaves of the tree (vegetable medicine) were for the healing of 
the nations. And there shall be no more curse; (strange that 
this should iinmediately follow the healing explanation, but it 
has its application in our curse of disease for departing to 
mineral medicine and vaccination) but the throne of God and of 
the lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him." — 
Rev., 22:2:8. 

God ruled Old Israel through his lawgiver on earth, and will 
rule Israel restored on the political ruins of the Republic, 
through his lawgiver on earth. The United States has amply 
demonstrated two facts; that she is smart enough for self-gov- 
ernment; but not honest enough for self-government. To 
demonstrate these two things she was raised up, that she might 
herself, in her own history; in her lapse from integrity to idols, 
fully and finally justify her political extinction, and submission 
to his rule. We have only to examine the loftly ideals of the 
father's of this Government and compare them with the politi- 
cal trades of the peoples' rights; the sale of their liberties, their 
birthright and their bodies to the Pope, to realize that before 
a court of conscience, or common sense, a Creator so contemp- 
tuously treated, may proceed absolutely unchallenged. 

Practically all of the prophecies of restoration in the Old 
Testament point to the prophecies of St. John and can be logi- 
cally and truthfully realized in Revelation, and beyond any past, 
partial, literal, historical realization, reach symbolically, and 
will agree so far as I can discover with the end of the times of 
the Gentiles. All the old prophets read symbolically, throw a 
flood of light on Revelation's last chapters, as Israel restored. 
God works through instruments. With a government already 
organized similar to his plan for Old Israel, and in working 
order, why should he go away from such a mighty plant as the 
United States to the Holy Land, to a little insignificant piece 
of ground which he has purposely ruined and never promised 
literally to restore, surrounded by powers, subject either to the 
Pope or the Moslem? The people now have all but lost their 
government, and the Pope has all but secured it. Now it is to 
change, either to the Pope or to the Almighty. Now it is a 
finish fight between the two. The Republican party can only 
stay in power with Catholic votes, as at present managed, and 
pay the Papal price, which is in the end delivery of the 
machinery of government. The Democratic party can only get 
in on Papal votes to be itself extinguished in like manner. 
Popular government is dead, and the Republican party has 



70 

reached the point in its history, which Lincoln saw in Demo- 
cratic history. ''You can fool all the people some of the time, 
and some of the people all of the time, but you can't foul all 
of the people all of the time." Neither can you fool the 
Almighty any of the time. 

To inaugurate a reign over all the earth, to use a territory, 
like Palestine, through which to attempt to rule the nations 
with a ''rod of iron," would make God a mighty small keeper of 
a promise given to Abraham and repeatedly ratified later. The 
United States, through her adultery with the Papal church, is 
at the bar of this court apostate; forfeited her right to further 
national existence. As he punished Nineveh, Tyre, ancient 
Egypt and ancient Babylon, so he can punish modern symboli- 
cal Egypt and modern symbolical Babylon. As he punished 
proud, boasting and cruel Egypt, under the very eyes of Old 
Israel, so he can punish Papacy, the modern Egypt, under the 
very eyes of Israel restored. As through Moses he literally kept 
one covenant to the promised land, so he can keep to Jacob the 
promise of an inheritance. As the greater will include the 
lesser, the Jews who sigh for a literal Jewish nation, can have 
it in the Holy Land, as soon as they accept this inheritance, and 
have in both more than they ever expected. 

His promise of an "inheritance" is as well fulfilled in one 
piece of land as in another. Chapter 16 of -2d Samuel is to me 
a luminous symbol pointing to us. "And the king said. And 
where is thy master's son? And Ziba said unto the king. Behold, 
he ahideth at Jerusalem (symbol of the U. S. or its Capitol): for 
he said. Today shall the house of Israel restore me the kingdom of 
my father. . . . And when king David came to Bahurim, behold, 
thence came out a man of the family of the house of Saul, ("a 
gloomy, apprehensive, melancholy man; and after taking, without 
success, what remedies were customary , his servants or physicians, 
finding his case beyond the reach of their art (/ Sam., 16:15), 
thought proper to represent it as a visitation from on high." He 
was convalesced, through the playing "of the young shepherd's 
careless harp." "He reigned forty years, but exhibited to pos- 
terity a melancholy example of a monarch, elevated to the 
summit of worldly grandeur, who, having cast off the fear of 
God, gradually became the slave of jealousy, duplicity, treachery, 
and the most malignant and diabolical tempers,") whose name 
was Shimei, the son of Gera; (Gerah, the smallest piece of money 
among the Plebrews, here symbolizing one of the "common 
people,") he came forth, and cursed still as he came. And the 
king said. What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? so 
let him curse, because.the Lord hath said unto him. Curse David. 



71 

Who shall then say, Wherefore hast thou done so? And it came 
to pass, when Hushai the Archite (Archbishop Ivtland), David's 
f7nend,wsiScom.e unto Absolom(Roosevelt.)" Absolom, the son of 
David (Uncle Sam) by Maccah, daughter of the king of Geshur 
(the Pope, geshur signifying a "bridge," political), distinguished 
for his tine person, his vices, and his unnatural rebellion (treason). 
Of his open revolt; his conduct in Jerusalem (Washington), his 
pursuit of the king his father, his defeat (lor another term, and 
final Pope's permanent vassal), and death (political), that Hushai 
(Ireland) said unto Absalom (Roosevelt), God save the king, 
God save the king. (I am not going into this Pope scheme; as 
between the Pope and David (Uncle Sam), 1 am for Uncle Sam.) 
And Absolom (Roosevelt) said to Hushai (Ireland), Is this thy 
kindness to thy friend? why wentest thou not with thy friend? 
(why won't you go in with the Pope, and Gibbons and me?) And 
Hushai (Ireland) said unto Absolom (Roosevelt), iV«t/; but whom 
the Lord, and this people, and all the men of Israel (restored), 
choose, his will I be, and with him will I abide. And again, 
whom, should I serve? should I not serve in the presence of his 
S071? as I have served in thy father's presence, so will 1 be in 
thy presence." Absalom's conspiracy is very interesting, and 
its end the safety of David; "And Absalom rode upon a mule 
(symbol of the "regular" doctor), and the mule went under the 
thick boughs of a great oak (on the Yale-Harvard campus), and 
his head caught hold of the oak, and he was taken up between 
the heaven and the earth (his scheme went up in the air); and 
the mule ("doctor") that was under him went away.'' — 2 Sam., 
18-9. 

"Jerusalem (the abode of peace), the celebrated capital of 
Palestine, . . . the sacred metropolis of the Hebrews, was 
situated on the boundary line of the tribes of Judah and Ben- 
jamin. As Jerusalem was the center of the true worship (Ps., 
122:4), and the place where God did in a peculiar manner dwell, 
first in the tabernacle, and afterwards in the temple (tabernacle 
a tent and temple a permanent structure), so it is used figura- 
tively to denote the passing and the permanent, and the political 
entity of Israel, the chosen. 

"The ancient city of Jerusalem or Jebus, which David took 
from the Jebusites, was not very large. It was seated upon a 
mountain southward (Mt. Vernon) of the temple (Capitol). The 
opposite mountaiyi (Constitution signed), situated toward the 
north, is Sion, where David built a new city, which he called 
the city of David (City of Washington), wherein was the royal 
palace (executive office, still north), and the temple (Capitol) 
of the Lord. 



72 

"Through the reigns of David and Solomon (wisdom), Jeru- 
salem was the metropolis of the whole Jewish kingdom, and 
continued to increase in wealth and splendor. It was resorted 
to at the festivals by the whole (national) population (popular 
representation) of the country; and the power and commercial 
spirit of Solomon, improving the advantages acquired by his 
father, David, centered in it most of the eastern trade, both by 
sea, through the ports of Elath and Ezion-Geber, and overland, 
by the way of Tadmor or Palmyra. Or, at least, though Jeru- 
salem might not have been made a depot of merchandise, the 
quantity of precious metals flowing into it (United States 
Treasury) by direct importation, and by duties imposed on 
goods passing to the ports of the Mediterranean, and in other 
directions, was unbounded. Some idea of the prodigious wealth 
of Jerusalem at this time may be formed by stating that the 
quantity of gold left by David for the use of the temple 
amounted to twenty-one million six hundred thousand pounds 
sterling, besides three million one hundred and fifty thousand 
pounds in silver; and Solomon obtained three million two 
hundred and forty thousand pounds in gold by one voyage to 
Ophir, while silver was so abundant; 'that it was not anything 
accounted of (free silver and the crime of 73). These were the 
days of Jerusalem'' s glory . Universal peace, unmeasured wealth, 
the wisdom and clemency of the prince (McKinley), and the 
worship of the true God, marked Jerusalem, above every city, 
as enjoying the presence and the especial favor of the Almighty. 

''But these days were not to last long; intestine divisions and 
foreign wars, wicked and tyrannical (big stick) princes, and last 
of all the crime most offensive to Heaven (treason), and the one 
least to he expected simongst so favored Si people, led to a series of 
calamities, through the long period of nine hundred years with 
which no other city or nation can furnish a parallel. After ihe 
death of Solomon (departure from spirit of the Constitution) ten 
of the twelve tribes revolted (civil war) from his successor Reho- 
boam (signifying, who enlarges (magnifies) the people," ''govern- 
ment of, by and for the people), and, under Jeroboam, the son 
of Nebat (''aspect") established a separate kingdom; began to^ 
solicit the subjects of Solomon to revolt; it appears evident 
that the aged monarch took the alarm, and attempted to appre- 
hend Jeroboam (Southern conspirators), who, getting notice of 
what was intended him, made a precipitous retreat into Egypt 
(Papacy in intrigue to bring on this war, as abundantly proven) , 
where he remained t\\\ the death of Solomon (Lincoln). He then 
returned and found that Rehoboam (Andrew Johnson), who had 
succeeded his father, Solomon, in the throne of David, had 



73 

already excited the disgust of ten of the tribes by some arbi- 
trary proceedings (Johnson's reconstruction policy), in conse- 
quence of which they //«(:/ withdrawn their allegiance. to the new 
monarch. 

These tribes no sooner heard of his return (Papal influence) 
than they invited him (Papal influence) to appear among them 
in a general assembly, in which they elected him to be king 
over Israel (Papal influence, or rather a Papal bullet having 
caused the succession to Lincoln, that influence by that murder 
came into Congress to trade votes for appropriations), Jereboam 
(Papal influence) fixed his residence at Sechem (Baltimore. ''Here 
Joseph's bones were brought out of Egypt to be interred. i\oio 
Jacob's well was there) and there fortified himself; he also 
rebuilt Peneul, a city beyond Jordan (John Ireland's territory), 
putting it into a state of defense, in order to keep the tribes 
quiet which were on that side of Jordan. But Jeroboam soon 
forgot the duty which he owed to (Jod, who had given him the 
kingdom; and thought of nothing but how to maintain himself 
in the possession of it, though he discarded the worship of the 
true God (you will notice this a symbol of Roosevelt as well), so 
that Jerusalem, no longer the capital of the whole empire, and 
its temple frequented only by the tribes of Judah and Benja- 
min, must have experienced a mournful (political) declension. 
Four years after this, the city (nation) and temple (Congress) 
were taken and plundered (practical control) by Shishak, king 
of Egypt (the Pope). . . . Within the space of sixty-six 
years more (one-half of the time, or 33 years from 1865, being 
1898) it was taken by Pharaoh-Necho, king of Egypt (the Pope), 
whom Josiah king of Judah (McKinley), had opposed in his 
expedition to Carchemish; and who, in consequence, was killed at 
the battle of Megiddo" (Megiddo is another rendering of Arma- 
geddon). — Hend-Buck- Watson. 

A short sketch is here interesting. ''Carchemish, the name of 
a town situated on the banks of the Euphrates (geographically 
as St. Paul is to the Mississippi) and belonging to the Assyrians, 
(Papacy) from whom it was taken (unintentionally) by Pharaoh- 
Necho, king of Egypt. The Egyptians left a garrison (John 
Ireland) in it, and in the fourth year of Jehoiakim (Taft) king 
of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, retook it and 
cut the garrison to pieces. The prodigious slaughter of the 
Egyptians (Papacy) which took place on this occasion, was fore- 
told by the prophet Jeremiah in a very animated style, and 
with great poetic energy and liveliness of coloring. — Jer,, 46: 
1-12. In the third and fourth verses of that chapter, the 
mighty preparations of the Egyptians (Papacy) for the contest 



74 

are described, and the prophet, who foresees the defeat, is led 
to express his astonishment at an event so contrary to what 
might have been expected. But he accounts for it (ver. 10) by 
resolving the whole into the Divine disposal, Jehovah having 
decreed that neither swiftness nor strength should avail, or pro- 
tect from the impending overthrow. In ver. 7, 8, 9, the king of 
Egypt is represented as coming up to the assistance of his gar- 
rison, animated with all the ostentation and insolence of antic- 
ipated success. He is compared to a mighty river such as the 
Nile, or the Euphrates, when they overflow their banks, and 
threaten to overwhelm the country with desolation and ruin. 

The prophet seems to hear him calling aloud to the nations 
of which his army is composed, giving them the signal for action^ 
and rousing them to deeds of desperate valor; but all in vain, 
since the time is come for God to avenge himself of his ancient 
foes, who are doomed to slaughter, and fall a bloody sacrifice on 
the plains of the North. The whole concludes with an apostrophe 
to the daughter of Egypt, whose wound is pronounced incurable, 
and her disgrace universally known; forasmuch as the number 
of her warriors have only served to augment the scene of con- 
fusion, and more effectually to destroy each other (ver. 11-12. 
2 Kings, 2?, \2^:')— Jones. 

''Jerusalem, the new. The city of Jerusalem, like Gehenna, 
Paradise, etc., furnishes a metaphorical application of its name, 
in an exalted and spiritual sense. The first hint of this in the 
New Testament, occurs in Gal. 4:25, where the apostle refers to 
the formation of the Hebrew nation into a church-state, by the 
giving of the law from Sinai; under which terrific and slavish 
dispensation the 'Jerusalem that now is,' he says, 'continues; 
but the Jerusalem above is free, which is the mother of us all,' 
believing Gentiles as well as Jews:" Paul says Gal. 4:24: "Which 
things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the 
one from the mount Sinai, in Arabia (sj^mbol of bondage), and 
answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with 
her children. But Jerusalem which is above is free (at large not 
yet prepared), which is the mother of us all." "And I John saw 
the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of 
heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband." — Rev. 
21:2. That is, whereas the covenant of Sinai having been met, 
the one which is to come down from "above" is the New Jerusa- 
lem, or Jerusalem restored. "And I saw a new (kind of) heaven 
and a new (kind of) earth: for the first heaven and the first 
earth were passed away; and there was no more sea." All 
covenants are fulfilled, and all prophecies realized. The reunion 
of the church-state of Old Israel, just as God promised the 



75 

Hebrews. He didn't promise where this JN'ew Jerusalem would 
light on the earth, but he promised them an ''inheritance," and one 
generally accepted rendering of the word is on Jewish authority. — 
Num. 26. ''An estate given or possessed by donation or Divine 
appropriation.''' — Webster. "And I heard a great voice out 
or heaven, saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, 
and he will dwell with them (Who? the Jews? No, with all men), 
and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, 
and be their God." "The name (New Jerusalem) seems to de- 
note the formation of all mankind into the church of God, be- 
ginning at Jerusalem the Capitol. Isaiah all but tells the Jews 
in the 54th Chapter and, 2nd verse, to expect this inheritance in 
a large place then unknown. "Enlarge the place of thy tent, and 
let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations (expect 
great things): spare not (in anticipation), lengthen thy cords: 
For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left (Old 
Jerusalem and Israel will be too small); and thy seed shall inherit 
the Gentiles, and make the desolate (undiscovered) cities (coun- 
try to be, with many cities) fo &g inhabited. ... In righteous- 
ness shalt thou be established: (which could well be the taking 
from the unrighteous) thou shalt be FAR from oppression. . . . 
Behold, they shall surely gather together, (thy inheritance) but 
not by me: (not by direct interposition) . . . Behold I have 
created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, (just getting 
ready) and that bringeth forth an instrument (not yet forged) 
for his work; and I have created (provided) the waster (our 
present disease scourge, and our Roosevelt and Taft apostasy) 
to destroy. This (the undiscovered country, for which I have just 
created the smith to blow the coals to bring forth instrument 
for his work) is the heritage of the servants of the Lord." 

We will next endeavor to identify the Roman Catholic Church 
by its symbol, Egypt. 

"Egypt, a much renowned kingdom (temporal sovereignty) of 
antiquity, is frequently in the Psalms styled the land of Ham, 
but is generally denoted in Scripture as the land of Mizraim. 
"Among all nations of antiquity, there is none more worthy of 
attention than Egypt. If not the birthplace, it was the early 
protector of the sciences, and cherished every species of knowl- 
edge, which was known or cultivated in remote times (true of 
the early Church before her apostasy made her afraid of true 
science). It was the principal source from whence the Greeks, 
'those persons of Hebrew descent who, being settled in cities 
where Greek was the natural language, s^oke this language 
rather than their parental Hebrew,' derived their information 
(the gospel in its purity was so preached in these cities): and 



76 

after all its windings and enlargements (pollution by the Pa- 
pacy) we may still trace the stream of our knowledge (through 
the Western World) to the banks of the Nile. Every ancient 
nation lays claim to a higher origin than legitimate history can 
sanction (as the apostate Papal church claims to be the true 
church); and the r.gyptians not only hoast of being the most 
ancient people in the world, but they evidently extend their 
claims to a fabulous period (fabulous claims). This proud 
nation, fondly conceited of its own antiquity, as Rollin expresses 
it, thought it glorious to lose itself in an abyss of infinite ages, 
as though it would carry back its pretensions to eternity, (like 
the Pope pretending Peter the chief apostle, and he the apostolic 
successor, and Vicar of Christ on earth, which no legitimate 
history can sanction.) But though such extravagant claims 
are quite inadmissible, it can not be denied that Egypt y^sls the 
cradle of the Hebrew nation (as the true religion, corrupted by 
Papacy, was the cradle of the Hebrew nation as it will be 
restored in the New Jerusalem). 

The invention of alphabetical letters, and the art of writ- 
ing, is generally attributed by the ancients' to the Egyptians. 
Egypt was the mother of the sciences as well as the arts. There 
were four colleges in Egypt (symbols of the four great apostles 
of our Lord) where science (the Scripture its base), was studied 
and taught: Thebes, which Pythagorus visited; Memphis, where 
Thales and Democritus consulted the Egyptian priests; Helio- 
polis, where Plato studied; and Sais, where Solon was instructed 
in the principles of legislation and government. 

The first important discoveries in astronomy were made by 
the Egyptians. As they were the first people of antiquity who 
lived by cultivating the ground, they were under a necessity of 
studying 'the motions of the stars. Arcturus, Orion, and the 
Pleides (Abraham, Isaac, Jacob) marked out the several seasons 
among the early Greeks (Hebrews en masse); and the rising of 
Sirious with the sun (the Christ), announced to the Egyptians 
the overflowing of the Nile (symbolizing the Papacy now getting 
out of its banks), and the customary time of sowing their grain, 
which was immediately after its retreat. To sum up their char- 
acter; (fruits) without having attained to elegance in the arts, or 
perfection in the sciences, tlTe Egyptians struck out the models 
on which other nations improved; and philosophy (their system 
of religion) owes them that respect which an empire pays to its 
founders." ''What J;iistory records of their buildings would sur- 
pass credibility were it not attested by their monuments (Cathed- 
rals), which remain to this day. Egypt is a scene of antiquities; 
walking among ruins (temporal and spiritual graveyard), the 



77 

traveler /or^e^s the present, to contemplate the past, and amid the 
traces of a degenerate race (apostate church), marks the remains 
(corpse) of a mighty nation (its original mission). Their build- 
ings are still sublime. The pyramids of Egypt (the kingdoms 
supporting the Papacy) have always ranked among the wonders 
of the world. Three of them still remain, (the Holy Alliance) at 
a distance of some leagues from Grand Cairo (Rome).'' The 
largest of the three, called the great Pyramid, may be the symbol 
of the largest territory, or greatest armament. 

''The judgment of the living upon the dead would make a 
particular impression in Egypt (Papal church), from the prej- 
udices of the people. The Egyptians believed that the soul 
hovered about the body till putrefaction took place; hence they 
looked upon the rites of sepulture everywhere so sacred (holy 
ground) as connected with their future felicity; and they hoped, 
by the secret of embalming which they discovered (the saying 
of masses for the dead at so much per mass, which the Papacy 
discovered), to survive for ages in the tomb. . . . Among 
nations who ace not blessed by divine revelation (the Papacy), 
the luminaries of heaven are the first objects of ivorship. (Virgin 
Mary and the Saints.) . . . The sun and moon, under the 
names of Isis and Osiris, were the chief objects of adoration 
among the Egyptians. A superstitious reverence for certain 
animals; as propitious or disastrous to the human race {\\\\- 
section and vaccination), was prevalent, though not peculiar to 
the Egyptians. ''Thus the physician ("regular") is the priest's 
brother." — Rev. Hejiry A. Brann, D. D., Catholic ]^orld, vol., 
62. The "regular" school of medicine is a part of the Catholic 
priesthood authorized by the Papal church to administer the 
sacrament of infant baptism and "as the representative of Christ 
and the Church (Papal), purifies the soul of the babe from original 
sin and make it worthy of angelic association." The emblem of 
this "regular" system of medicine, "regular" because coming 
down through the Papal priesthood, is very appropriately, the 
Serpent. The "superstition ... as propitious or disastrous 
to the human race" has been abundantly realized in the pre- 
valence of tuberculosis, syphilis, and other "grievous and 
noisome sores." The poison of the Serpent, moral and physical 
is most apparent. 

"The Serpent has been the object of religious respect to one- 
half of the nations of the known world." It is the system medi- 
cal, installed through the power of the Papacy, with every 
nation of the world, where the Papacy has adulterous relation, 
is essentially an European and Monarchical institution, and one 
of the principal arms of corruption, and for revenue used by the 



78 

Papacy. ''The Romans had sacred animals, which they kept in 
their temples, and distinguished with peculiar honors." The 
Papacy honors the physician in their church economy, make it 
a part of their priesthood, gives it practically especial privilege 
in their hospitals, each one with hardly an exception has a 
chapel and Papal service, and the article of Brann above quoted, 
is headed, ''How the Church Honors the Physician." In Eccles- 
iasticus a canonical book of the Papal bible, but not accepted 
by Protestants we find in the 38th Chapter. "The skill of the 
physician shall lift up his head (which, that he is 'heady' no one 
will deny) and in the sight of great men (Roosevelt and Taft) 
he shall be praised. . . . By these he shall cure and shall 
allay their pains (opium), and the apothecary shall make sweet 
confections, and sAaZ/ make up ointments of health (principally 
blue and grey ointment), and of his works there shall be no end. 
Give a sweet savour (testimonial to the physician or credit) 
and a memorial of fine flour (substantial), and make a fat offer- 
ing (to the Pope), and then give place to the (Pope's) physi- 
cian. . . For the Lord created him (a part'of our church 
priesthood); and let him not depart from thee (stay by him), for 
his works are necessary (to the church, in getting appropriations 
behind the mask of this our medical mask, to feed our hospitals, 
homes for destitute Catholics, and Penitentiaries for our 
parishoners. It is notable also that the Papal is the religion of 
murder in this country, nearly one hundred per cent of men 
hanged, being attended by Papal priests). For there is a time 
when thou must fall into their hands (because we have arranged 
their practice so you can't escape. We give you mercury and 
vaccination professedly for your good, when we know it will 
fasten other diseases on you, and keep you tributary to our 
church). And they (the doctor-priest) shall beseech the Lord, 
(pray) that he would prosper what they give for ease and 
remedy." If after taking, mercury and vaccination for awhile 
you don't "beseech" the Lord to "prosper" to you, and not to 
the church, what they give iov "ease and remedy," it will be 
because you are not familiar with that other text: "Lord teach 
us how to pray." 

The gentleman, the son of Sirach (signifying * Withdrawing' 0, 
who wrote this book of Ecclesiasticus, called it "Wisdom," and 
by it we can also show the truth of prophetic utterance, as to 
the Papal church, by a book that they accept, and we do not. 

A reading of this chapter of Ecclesiasticus in the apocraphy 
of the King James version would disclose, without difficulty, 
why it could never be accepted as canonical by Protestants. 
But a comparison of the chapter as given in the King James 



79 

version, and the Papal version, shows such a very marked differ- 
ence, that an intelligent open minded man can not compare the 
two and escape the conviction that if the King James is the 
original version, it has in the Papal version come to a perversion 
Avhich naturally results in great advantage to the Papal Church 
temporally. If you think there is no difference in the Protest- 
ant and Papal Bibles, compare these two chapters. 

''vVe need not therefore be surprised, that a nation (church), 
so superstitious as the Egyptians (Papal), should honor with 
peculiar marks of respect, the ichneumon (or physician-serpent). 
These they entertained at great expense, and with much magnifi- 
cence. Lands were (hospitals and homes) set apart for their 
maintenance; persons of the highest rank (Roosevelt and Taft) 
were employed in feeding and attending them; rich carpets were 
spread in their apartments (Dr. Admiral Rixey, Dr. General 
Wood jumped over 400 numbers. Dr. Surgeon General Wyman, 
Dr. Wiley), and the pomp of their funerals corresponded to the 
profusion and luxury which attended them when alive. What 
chiefly tended to favor the progress of animal (doctor) worship 
in Egypt (Papacy), was the language of hieroglyphics (in which 
the physician writes common salt and water, in latin, by decree 
of the Pope the language of the Papal Church the world over; 
in this way we are inspired with awe of th'fe physician). In the 
hieroglyphic inscriptions on their temples and public edifices, 
animals, and even vegetables, were the symbols of the gods 
whom they worshipped (like hospitals and homes are named 
after saints, and images of the saints put on them). In the midst 
of innumerable superstitions, the theology of Egypt (like Rome) 
contained the two great principles of religion, the existence of 
a Supreme Being, and the immortality of the soul. The splendid 
temples of Egypt were not built, in all probability, till after the 
time of Solomon. . . . Mr. Jowett saw at one place the people 
making bricks, . . . (with Jews, just as they are making bricks 
by them in the National Health scheme — using them) they were, 
in fact, engaged exactly as the Israelites used to be, making 
bricks with straw (which still blinds them); and for a similar 
purpose, — to build extensive granaries for the bashaw; 'treasure- 
cities for Pharaoh,' . . . 'the mollems(like the Papal lieuten- 
ants) transact business between the bashaws and the peasants. 

"He punishes them if the peasants prove that they oppress; 
and yet he requires from them that the work of those who are 
under them shall be fulfilled. They strikingly illustrate the 
case of the ofl^cers (Roosevelt) placed by the Egyptian taskmas- 
ters over the children of Israel; and, like theirs, the mollems 
often find their case is evil (in Roosevelt's case under my 



80 

eyes, to attempted confiscation and accomplished murder in the 
interest of the Papacy). A PART of the prophecies respecting 
this haughty and idolatrous kingdom, uttered by Jeremiah and 
Ezekiel, when it was in the height of its splendor and prosper- 
ity, were fulfilled in the terrible invasions of Nebuchadnezzar, 
Cambyses, and the Persian monarchs. It comes, however, again 
into an interesting connection with the Jewish history under 
Alexander the Great, who invaded it as a Persian dependence. 
Egypt, indeed, was about to see better days; and during the 
Ptolemies (Roosevelt and Taft) enjoyed again, something of its 
former renown for learning and power. It formed during this, 
period, and before the rapid extension of the Roman empire (Is- 
rael restoring) tow SLTds the termination of these (Roosewelt-Tsiit) 
years, one of the only ^w;o ancient (religious) kingdoms (the Roman 
and Greek branches of the original church; the Mohammedan 
now being broken by the last move in Turkey) which had sur- 
vived the Assyrian, Babylonian, Persian, and Macedonian em- 
pires: the other was the Syrian (Constantine-Paulicians), where 
the-Seleucidse (Seleucia, where Paul & Barnabas sailed) another 
family of one of the successors of Alexander reigned. . . . 
The prophecies respecting Egypt in the Old Testament have had 
a wonderful fulfillment. And the literal fulfillment of 
every prophecy affords as clear a demonstration as can 
possibly be given, that each and all of them are the 
dictates of inspiration. Egypt (arid the Papal church) was the 
theme of many prophecies, which were fulfilled in ancient 
time; and it bears to the present day, as it has borne through- 
out many ages, every mark with which prophecy has stamped 
its destiny: 'They shall be a base kingdom. It shall be the 
basest of kingdoms. Neither shall it exalt itself any more 
among the nations: for I will diminish them, that they shall no 
more rule over the nations. I the Lord have spoken it. And 
there shall be no more a prince of the land of Egypt,' (Papacy) — 
Ezek., 29:14-15; 30:13. 'The sceptre of Egypt (Popery) shall 
depart away.' — Zech., 10:11. 'If their first establishment was 
a singular event, their continuance is not less extraordinary. 
. . The system of oppression is methodical. Everything 
the traveler sees or hears reminds him he is in the country of 
slavery and tyranny." "A more unjust and absurd constitution 
can not be devised than that which condemns the natives of a 
country to perpetual servitude, under the arhitrai^y domination 
of strangers and slaves (just where Roosevelt and Taft are put-, 
ting us — under Pope and priests — "strangers and slaves"). The 
most illustrious sultans of the Bararite and Borgite dynasties 
were themselves promoted from the Tartar and Circassian bands,.

and the four-and-twenty beys or military chiefs have ever been 
succeeded, not by their S07is, but by their servants.' These are 
the words of Volney and of Gibbon, scoffers at the Bible, but 
eye-witnesses of the facts foretold in it two thousand four hun- 
dred years before.' ''The Lord shall smite Egypt; (the Papal 
and false church) he shall smite and heal it; (weed out idolatry 
and Popery) and they shall return to the Lord, and he shall be 
entreated of them, and shall heal them. In that day shall 
Israel (the United States) be the third with Egypt (the Papacy) 
and with Assyria, even a blessing in the midst of the land: 
(World). Whom the Lord of hosts shall bless, saying, Blessed 
be Egypt my people, (Europe) and Assyria (Asia) the work of 
mine hands, aiid Israel (United States) mine inheritance." — Isa. 
19, 22-2J^-25. 

Roman Catholics who recognize the likeness of the symbol of 
Egypt, and who are left in doubt in Revelation*; as to whether 
any Papal adherents will escape the destruction of that time, 
or whether the reference is to the political power of the Papacy 
and its divorcement from the State, have in the above a gen- 
eral statement, which is more specific in preceding verses, v-II: 
"Surely the princes of Zoan are fools (Zoan was a 'royal city of 
Egypt, and extremely ancient,' corresponding to Rome, the 
princes corresponding to the Pope and his Cardinals), the coun- 
sel of the wise counsellors of Pharaoh (College of Cardinals) is 
become bruitish; how say ye unto Pharaoh (how do you say 
unto yourself), I am the son of the wise (the Vicar of Christ), 
the son of ancient kings (the line of Israel's kings)? Where are 
they? where are thy whe men? and let them tell thee now, 
and let them know what the Lord of hosts hath purposed upon 
Egypt (the Papacy). The princes of Zoan (Pope and Cardinals) 
are become fools, the princes of Noph are deceived (Noph is gen- 
erally believed to have been Memphis. 'Memphis' is the Greek 
form of the Egyptian name, which, according to Plutarch, sig- 
nifies the port of the good. Noph then stands for 'good' 
priests are 'deceived' by the 'bruitish fools,' in Rome); they 
have also seduced Egypt (the lay membership, with promises 
they can not fulfill), even they that are the stay (support) of the 
tribes (church government) thereof. The Lord hath mingled a 
perverse spirit in the midst (of the councils) thereof: and 
they have caused Egypt (Papal church) to err in every work 
thereof, as a drunken man staggereth in his vomit. (That is 
why by the United States putting the 'regular' system of medi- 
cine, the Pope's system in the Army, Navy, and Public Service, 
thus committing fornication with Popery, our people are paying 



82 

for it, in multiplication of diseases and their increased mortal- 
ity, shortened span of life, curse of tuberculosis and syphilis, 
stamped by the Almighty.) ''and they (Pope and Cardinals) 
have caused (designedly and deliberately) Egypt (the church) 
to err in every work thereof, Neither shall there be any work 
for Egypt (the Roman Catholic Church), which the head or 
tail, branch or rush, may do'(nobody a Papist can get a job, and 
her hospitals, business ventures, schools, homes, and invest- 
ments, will be swept up clean). In that day shall Egypt (Popery) 
be like unto women: and it shall be afraid and fear because 
of the shaking of the hand of the Lord of hosts, which he 
shaketh over it. And the land of Judah (the United States) 
shall be a terror unto Egypt (the Papacy) — , every one that 
maketh mention thereof shall be afraid in himself, because of the 
counsel of the Lord of hosts, which he hath determined 
against it. In that day shall five cities (countries or 
nations) in the land of Egypt (where the Papacy predominates 
or controls) speak the language of Canaan (throw off Papacy), 
and swear to the Lord of hosts (return to the true religion): 
one shall be called. The city of destruction (Italy). In that day 
shall there be an altar to the Lord in the midst (Rome or Italy) 
of the land of Egypt, and a pillar (visible evidence) at the border 
thereof to the Lord. And it shall be for a sign and for a witness 
unto the Lord of hosts in the land of Egypt (Papal territory): 
for they shall cry unto the Lord because of the oppressors 
(Papal authority sought to be used in coercion), and he shall 
send them a saviour, and a great one (the United States ruling 
the other nations ''with a rod of iron," for their relief), and he 
shall deliver them. And the Lord shall be known to Egypt, and 
the Egyptians shall know the Lord in that day (embrace Protes- 
tantism), and shall do sacrifice and oblation (worship); yea, they 
shall vow a vow unto the Lord, and perform it." — Isaiah, 19. A 
new sensation for the Papacy- 

But Peter himself, the rock upon which the Papacy is builded, 
may be safely appealed to, to show how true is the symbol of 
Egypt, and strange enough we shall find Peter as well a symbol 
of the true church perverted, and reclaimed; and also of the 
United States perverted, and reclaimed. 

Peter's humble life and beginning, the first called of the dis- 
ciples, stands after Christ the initial exponent of the pure Chris- 
tian religion, as does the United States of a pure democracy 
grown to a purely organized republic. "His original name was 
Simon or Simeon, which his Divine Master, when he called him 
to the apostleship, changed for that of Cephas, a Syriac word. 



83 

signifying a stone or rock; in Latin, petra, from whence is de- 
rived the term Peter." Peter's first lesson after his new allegiance, 
is in an attempt to walk upon the water upon his own initiative 
to meet Jesus. Essaying this he failed; ''when he saw the wind 
boisterous, he was afraid." This was the first object lesson of 
that creed, " unless ye become as little children (in faith and 
obedience) ye shall in nowise enter the kingdom of heaven." 

Peter was called of Christ and followed ''afar off'' in faith. 
The luminous lesson taught in the Old Testament is, in a chosen 
people, National faith and National obedience, is essential to 
National salvation. That treason is absolutely fatal. The burden 
of symbolic prophecy of the Jewish prophets is on most every 
page, and is this creed, and is of the United States, the next 
chosen; Israel restored. With the coming of Christ, his national 
rejection by the Jews, salvation became individualized as an aid 
to the "Great Purpose" of conserving National salvation. One 
little seed, like the mustard seed, sprang up in England, was 
transplanted here "away from the Serpent," and National re- 
sponsibility remained virile until it interfered with politics, and 
the Serpent got control of American politics; like the clamor of 
Old Israel crowded God out of her politics and he was replaced 
by a king. Washington's Farewell Address had warned us, as 
Moses replied to the murmurings of Israel, and Moses died on 
the mountain top in sight of the "promised land," even as 
Lincoln died on the mountain top of a "Great Purpose," against 
the "same principle." It would seem that lest we fail to grasp 
the symbols in the prophets of Old, God has rewritten in the 
first book of the New Testament, and repeatedly in the other 
gospels in the personal relations of Christ with Peter, an ever 
present and ever recurring prophecy upon the Papacy and upon 
the United States. 

Christ rebuked Peter as he saved him from the water. "0 
thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?" Peter was 
rebuked upon the sea (before the world) and then taken into 
the ship, as the Papacy will be rebuked before the world before 
she is taken purified into the ship with Jesus. The United States 
made her first mistake which brought rebuke in a Papal alliance 
by the Democratic party, controlling the nation, and we were 
rebuked for our lack of faith in God, and its transferral to the 
Pope, by the civil war, and the loss of Lincoln. Next, Peter gets 
a mirror of the Papal Church, emphasized by Peter himself ask- 
ing: "Declare unto this parable." "And Jesus said, Are ye also 
(like the multitude) yet without understanding," and my fol- 
lower. Then he specifically shows to Peter the "fruits" of the 
Apostolic church destined to be built upon his character. 



84 

as a rock. ''For out of the heart (of Satan the traitor) 
proceed evil (National and Church) thoughts, (National 
and Church) murders, (National and Church) adulteries, 
(National and Church) fornications, (National and Church) thefts 
(National and Church) false witness, (National and Church) blas- 
phemies." And if you will steadily keep in mind, that through 
all the gospels, up to the resurrection and the return of Christ, 
Peter's talks with Christ, represent in symbol the difference be- 
tween the Christianity of the Church of Rome, and of Christ, I 
think you will perceive the lesson that is sought to impress, by 
the prominence of Peter through it all. Not a recorded question 
by some others, whose devotion is secure. Then came in the 
woman of Canaan, and a rebuke to both Peter, and Uncle Sam: 
"It is not meet to take the children's bread, (of life) and to cast it 
to dogs." And as the Papal Church and Uncle Sam will reply, 
she said: "Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which 
fall from their master's table." "Then Jesus answered and said 
unto her, woman, great is thy faith (now): be it unto thee 
(now that you supplicate) as thou wilt. And her daughter was 
made whole from that very hour." "And Jesus departed from 
thence (Tyre and Sidon) and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; 
(the Jordan flows through the sea of Galilee, as its symbol the 
Mississippi, flows through lake Pepin, near the Archbishopric of 
John Ireland) and went up (north from old Galilee) into a moun- 
tain (United States mountain is a symbol for a government) and 
sat down there (with a mountain; a nation for his throne, for he 
was then a King). And great multitudes came unto him, having 
with them those that were (before) lame, blind, dumb, maimed, 
(personally, religiously and nationally) and many others, and 
cast them down at Jesus feet; and he healed them:" This is a 
very peculiar word to use here; to "cast" the sick at the feet of 
Jesus, but peculiarly apt symbolically, and probably no book 
ever published uses words so aptly as the Bible. Then came 
the healing of the sick, and the glorifying, and Christ's compas- 
sion for the multitude, "because they continue with me now 
three days, (three prophetic years) and have nothing to eat." 
"And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so much 
bread in the wilderness, (symbol of the United States) as to fill 
so great a multitude? And Jesus saith unto them. How many 
Zoai;es have ye? And they said, aS^^^^/i, and a few little fishes. 
(seven denominations of any size and a few little ones, or fishes) 
And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground. 
(pre-empt it, or homestead it nationally) And he took the seven 
loaves and the fishes, (all these different sects) and gave thanks, 
and brake them, and gave to his disciples, (those that actually 



85 

followed him) and the disciples unto the multitude. And they 
did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat 
that was left seven baskets fidl.'' 

Then the Pharisees {Pi'ote slants) and Saducees {Unitarians) 
came, and tempting desired that he would shew them a sign 
from heaven. He answered and said unto them, When it is 
evening, (for your nation) ye say. It will be fair weather: for 
the sky is red (Gibbon's Red Cardinal Hat). And in the morn- 
ing, (next morning) It will be foul weather today: for the sky 
is red and lowering. ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face 
of the sky; (by the astrological destiny of Roosevelt) but can 
ye not discern the signs of the times? (which differ somewhat 
from the Zodiac). A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh 
{the soothsayer) for a sign; and there shall no sign be given 
unto it, hut the sign of the prophet Jonas. {Jonah. John Ire- 
land is their Jonah.) ''And the Lord spake unto the fish, 
and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land.'' Jon. 2-10). 
"Upon the repentance of the Ninevites under his (Jonas) preach- 
ing. God deferred the execution of his judgment till the in- 
crease of their iniquities made them ripe for destruction, about 
a hundred and fifty years afterward." — Watson. To 1776, add 
about 150 years afterward and we have 1926. In Cesarea- 
Philippi (near which the transfiguration took place — St. Paul, 
Minn.) Jesus had been taken by the populace as John the Bap- 
tist; Elias; and Jeremias, or one of the prophets, but with no 
such saving power as the Virgin Mary. ''He saith unto them, 
(the crucial question) But whom say ^6 that I am? And Simon 
Peter (John Ireland) answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the 
Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, 
Blessed art thou Simon-Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not 
revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven." 

Simon-Barjona is a name "which . . . some think is put 
for Bar-Johanna, son of John" (Calmet). Peter had professed 
conversion through faith; had professedly experienced a change. 
Up to this time he had lacked faith to walk on the water, and 
the faith to perceive the simple parable which Jesus proceeded 
to elucidate forcibly, showing where a profession without faith 
would lead. He had shown Peter the faith of the woman from 
Canaan. Where, when she called for mercy (as a matter of form) 
without faith, "he answered her not a word." But when she 
came and "worshipped" in faith, he showed Peter the result in 
her daughter, "made whole in that very hour.'' 

"And I say unto thee, {confirming him in his faith) That thou 
art Peter, (not^that thou art Peter, for he had been Peter, a dead 
"stone" all the time before; honeycombed with doubt, and 



86 

dosey. Now he said he had faith, and Christ had confirmed him 
in it. Now he was not dead Peter in Christ, but if he were any- 
more than a professor of faith, and Jesus took him at his word, 
it made Peter a ''living stone," fit for a foundation. Thou art, 
when alive, Thou art not, when dead. Art is here used in the 
sense of its analogy can; an assurance from the Christ that if his 
faith and profession were from "my father which is in heaven," 
you can do these miracles, and the things that I have done 
before you. Art is used as a symbol of strength in Rev., 11-17, 
saying, ''We give thee thanks, Lord God Almighty, which art, 
and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy 
great poiver, and hast reigned." That expression then in 
Heaven, from whence Christ came, stood for power. What did 
Christ mean in this connection; just this once, calling him Simon- 
Barjona? There was another Simon in Jewish history beside 
Simon the brother of Andrew. He was "Simon Maccabaeus, 
surnamed Thossi, son of Matthias, and a brother of Judas and 
Jonathan. He was chief prince and Pontiff of the Jews from A. 
M. 3860 to 3869.''— Watson. 

In this name alone Jesus spoke the early and latter history 
of Peter, and his Papal incubus — redeemed. Judas and John 
were brother disciples with Peter. The Simon in the greeting 
then means "brother of Judas, and future pontiff," and after 
correction and regeneration, "son of John" the constant, "the 
disciple whom Jesus loved." Peter the eldest called seems to 
have done about all the talking for "the church." "and upon this 
rock (faith professed and confirmed) I will build my church; 
and the gates of hell (the Papacy built on Peter) shall not 
prevail against it." 

Jesus said "Blessed art thou, Simon-Bar-jona:" After you 
become like John. He didn't bless him while he remained Peter. 
He was Peter; his blessing (strength, his art), comes when he 
reaches the other end of his name, for his symbol not far away 
now. Now this same Peter, after he had passed through this 
valuable experience became a judge of stones himself, and for 
our edification has written it in his short and virile repudiation 
of the gentleman who appropriated his name to its pollution, 
without giving him any other opportunity of rebuke. "Where- 
fore, laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and 
envies, and evil speakings, As new born babes, desire the sin- 
cere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby : if so be ye 
have tasted that the Lord is gracious. To whom coming, as unto 
a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and 
precious, Ye also, as living stones, are built up a spiritual house 
(not a trading concern), an holy priesthood (not a drunken. 



87 

adulterous priesthood), to offer up spiritual sacrifices (not abso- 
lution, and indulgences for money), acceptable to God by Jesus 
Christ (not the Pope as my apostolic representative)." "Where- 
fore also it is contained in the Scripture, Behold I lay in Sion 
(or Zion; to which David transferred his Court from Hebron — 
frequently called the city of Davia) a chief corner stone, electa 
precious; and he that believeth in himshsih not be confounded^ 
John the Baptist had said in Matt., 3:9: ''God is able to raise 
up children even of stones." 

Returning to Christ's experience with Peter, after calling him 
Simon Bar-jona and Peter, in the same breath, he said: ''And I 
will give unto thee the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven: and 
whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; 
and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in 
heaven." This is where the Pope gets the keys, as they claim 
delivered to Peter. "From this time forth began Jesus to show 
unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and 
suffer many things of the elders and chief priests (as in the 
Papacy today) and be killed (the Papacy sacrifices him to the 
Virgin Mary) and be raised again the third day." If we make 
three days three hundred prophetic years, our present time 
would approximately make the 300 years from the landing of 
the Puritan pilgrims, and their ministry, up to the crucifixion 
by Roosevelt. The recognition of the Pope coming in Roose- 
velt's first term, his second term, may stand for the first day, 
Taft's term for the second, and the next four years for the third 
day. 

Now according to Papal claims, Peter has become the rock on 
which the Church is built, has the keys of the kingdom of 
heaven, and is told he can loose anything in heaven and earth, 
and bind anything in heaven or earth, so having become equal 
with Christ to supersede him after the crucifixion, he pro- 
ceeds to run heaven and earth. "Then Peter took him, 
(to task) and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from 
thee. Lord: (I will arrange this) this shall not be unto thee, 
(interfering with God's plans). But he (Jesus) turned, and said 
unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou (usurper) art an 
offence wuio me; (you are Antichrist) for thou savourest not the 
things that be of God, but those that be of men." 

Now according to the reading of the Pope, Jesus had delivered 
the keys of heaven and temporal and spiritual power to Peter, 
and then had directly and unequivocally called him Satan. That 
puts the keys of heaven and earth according to the Pope's rea- 
soning in the hands of Satan. And he, the Pope claims to have 
the keys, and is satisfied with this identification of himself, we 



88 

may claim it to be a fulfillment of prophecy on the revealing of 
the "man of Sin," "Let no man deceive you by any means: for 
that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, 
and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition." — 2 Thess., 
2-3. 

That was a great mistake of Jesus, to be fooled so on the 
keys to heaven, and I don't wonder, that Peter's church put 
him in the background, and substituted the Virgin Mary and 
the Canonical saints. Then for Peter's church to reflect over 
Jesus said: ''For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the 
whole world, (and the keys thereof) and lose his own soul? 
or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" Jesus 
had stamped upon Peter's responsible following, the character 
of Satan for all time, for he said, ''Verily 1 say unto you, there 
be some standing here (representing Satan) which shall not 
taste of death (Satan's — the Pope's death) till they see the Son 
of man coming in his kingdom." At the transfiguration, Peter 
fell again, but Jesus did not rebuke him. He proposed to 
build upon the mount of transfiguration, three earthly taberna- 
cles, "one for thee (Jesus) and one for Moses, and one for Elias." 
Directly at variance with Christ's teaching, a species of idolatry 
rebuked by God, Moses and Elias, proposes to divide his 
heavenly allegiance, just as his church has. Peter proposed 
the treason, which they have consummated. Next came the 
man with his son a "lunatick" and the disciples could not cure 
him. Peter had the keys. Jesus said you can't cure him, 
because of your unbelief. Howbeit this kind (curing "luna- 
ticks" by faith) goeth not out (by building tabernacles or get- 
ting the keys of heaven by false pretense) but by prayer and 
fasting." Then Peter went wrong on the tribute money propo- 
sition; Jesus paid no tribute money direct, but as a matter of 
form, "lest we should offend them," who exact tribute of the 
king, he directed Peter to catch a fish. (Now the Pope's signet 
ring is the fisherman's ring) and when he caught the ''fish,'" and 
w^hen thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of 
money: (John Ireland — Jonah, again) then take, and (paying 
them in their own coin) give unto them for me and thee.'* A 
"piece" of money is "a stater," and I guess we do no violence 
to the text, to amend and call it "a starter." 

Next came the great question of ambition, "Who is the greatest 
(of the disciples) in heaven?" Answered with a little child. 
"Verily I say unto you, except ye be converted (from what ye 
are) and become as little children." With faith and obedience. 
What does a little child know about the great doctrines, infant 
baptism, immersion, justification, sanctification, foreordination. 



89 

foreknowledge, moral agency, works, the eternal fitness of things, 
and the life everlasting? The little child in faith and obedience 
has all these things. Our creeds, put these husks, between the 
starving, and the corn. Then a woe is pronounced against the 
man or church estranging little children, or the weak, their 
symbol. Next he shows Peter in the parable of the sheep, the 
difference between Divine tenderness, and the tenderness that 
bla^teth. Then the caution against arrogance and the abuse of 
power, talking to the Papacy through Peter on their sinful 
specialties. 

Then that Peter would be sure to understand about loosing 
things in heaven and in earth, he follows up the little child 
parable, so luminous of the essential doctrines of faith and 
obedience, and said : ''Verily I say unto you. Whatsoever ye shall 
bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatsoever ye 
shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." There was no 
use talking, Peter could not qualify, although it was made very 
alluring, with ''whatsoever." Then came the parable of the man 
who owed ten thousand talents, the blast against absolution for 
money. The.n follows the question on divorce, and Jesus refer- 
ence to Moses. The original government of Israel is here hinted 
at, which was a constitution acknowledging the Almighty, the 
mass of the people being moved politically by the law of God. 

Because of the children of Israel asking for a king and being 
given to idolatry, they divorced themselves, both spiritually and 
politically, and Jesus said, "but from the beginning it was not 
so." We of the United States originally acknowledged the 
Almighty in our organization, and was moved politically by the 
law of God, but we have divorced ourselves by our relations 
with the Papacy. Jesus left the disciples in a quandary. 

Then came to Peter the rebuke to covetousness. "Verily I 
say unto you. That a rich man shall hardly enter into the king- 
dom of Heaven." Then he emphasizes this with the Camel illus- 
tration (the camel being the principal medium of traf&c in the 
desert) which reaches beyond Peter, to the Papacy, and Christ's 
irreconcilable enmity to it. 

"A camel's anger" is an Arabian proverb for an irreconcilable 
enemy. There is no animal which remembers an injury longer, 
nor seizes with greater keenness the proper opportunity of 
revenge; which is the more remarkable on account of its gentle 
and docile disposition, when unprovoked by harsh treatment." 
Also the camel constituted an important branch of patriarchal 
wealth. "Nor is it without special design, that the inspired 
writer mentions the descent of the person appointed (to care for 



90 

them); he was an Ishmaelite, and therefore supposed to be thor- 
oughly skilled in the treatment of that useful ^quadruped. 
. . . many of which were adorned with chains of gold, and 
other rich and splendid ornaments." ''Then answered Peter 
and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and have fol- 
lowed thee; What shall we have therefor?'' Peter had the Papal 
eye to the investment. "And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say 
unto you. That ye which have followed me, in the regeneratioriy 
when the Son of man shall sit IN the throne of his glory, ye also 
shall sit upon twelve thrones (twelve original colonies) judging 
the twelve tribes of Israel." It is evident Peter had not as yet 
received theregeneration,though the Pope claims he had the keys; 
and the heavenly promises of glory, was to him vague and in- 
substantial. And every one that hath forsaken (Papal) houses, 
or (Papal) brethren, or (Papal) sisters, or (Papal) father or 
(Papal) mother, (Superior) or (Papal) wife, or (Papal) children^ 
or (Papal) lands for my name's sake, etc." ''But many that are 
(now) first, shall be last; .and the last shall be first." 

Then came the mother of Zebedee's children, and Christ's re- 
ply which also reached past her to the Papacy, that it should be 
crucified and regenerated. And when the ten were indignant at 
her request, Jesus told them how, that they are not to be kings 
with kingly authority on earth like the princes of the Gentiles, 
but ministers to minister. Then it didn't look very promising 
to Peter for earthly distinction in heaven, and I suppose that is 
why the Papacy take theirs here. 

Then came the lesson of the blind men. "And, behold, two 
blind men (Protestant and Papist) sitting by the wayside, when 
they heard that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy 
on us, Lord, thou Son of David" (the line of Royal descent). 

They repeated the request though the multitude rebuked 
them. 

"And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said. What will 
ye that I should do unto you? They say unto him, Lord, that 
our eyes may be opened. So Jesus had compassion on them, 
and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received 
sight, and they followed him." But was Peter's eyes opened? 

Further to show Peter and the Papacy he went into the 
Temple at Jerusalem, and cast out them that bought and sold 
{indulgences) "in the Temple," and overthrew the tables of the 
moneychangers, (inter-national Papal money influence, like the 
one he uses on this government through his bankers as he does 
in other countries) and the (priest's) seats of them that sold 
doves." (The dove, is a symbol of simplicity, innocence, gentle- 



91 

ness, affection, and fidelity.) 'It is written, My house shall be 
called a house of prayer: but ye (Papacy) have made it a den of 
thieves." How rude Jesus was. He could not go in good 
society, be a considered candidate for the presidency, or any 
other office, or have ''good form," in the United States, with 
such "religious intolerance." Selling innocence is their busi- 
ness and religion, and that the Big Stick says, is a matter be- 
tween himself and his Maker. Jesus would get no invitation to 
the White House — to meet His Eminence, James Cardinal 
Gibbons. Well, if. it is a matter between a man and his Maker, 
that is one thing that will escape Roosevelt's settlement. 

''And the blind and the lame came to him in the Temple and 
he healed them." The blind and the lame of the Papacy will 
come in the temple of the United States and be healed. The 
sound Papists will be otherwise disposed of. Peter is still 
blind. "And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonder- 
ful things that he did (will do) . . . they were (will be) 
sore displeased." It interferes with business, and makes common 
people ask questions. 

Then he gave Peter another view of the Papal church. "Now 
in the morning as he returned into the City, he hungered. And 
when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found noth- 
ing thereon, (a Peter fig tree, and an Uncle Sam fig tree) but 
leaves only, (just enough to fool you) and said unto it, (Peter's 
Church — Uncle Sam's government) Let no fruit grow on thee 
henceforth forever. And presently the fig tree withered away. 
And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, how soon 
is the fig tree withered away. Jesus answered and said unto to 
them, Verily I say unto you. If ye (my disciples) have faith, and 
doubt not (works begotten of faith) ye shall not only do this which 
is done to the fig tree, (a direct command to fight Papacy) but 
als'o if ye shall say unto this mountain (United States is a moun- 
tain in symbol; so is the Papacy) be thou removed, and be thou 
cast into the sea; it shall be done. And all things whatsoever 
ye (faithful and obedient) shall ask in prayer, believing, (and 
work as though you believed ) ye shall receive." Here is a field for 
the laymen's missionary movement. 

Considering all this a lesson to the Protestant church. as well 
as Peter, and that this last promise follows and is logically C07i- 
ditioned on the fig tree incident, Jesus must, looking down from 
above, conclude that at least Satan's Church has the faith in its 
patron, that the Protestant church has tolerably relinquished in 
him. How many prayers does Jesus hear to remove with your 
help, this mountain of Papacy, his greatest enemy, to which 



92 

murder, stealing, and the smaller vices, are but satellites, in- 
dulged and forgiven for money. Ever hear any in prayer meet- 
ing; or the Sunday service? Oh, no. Our church has just sent 
or received fraternal delegates from our Catholic friends who 
are really very much interested in the temperance movement, 
and social settlement and health work. They are much nicer 
people than Jesus said. I don't see what Jesus was thinking 
about. That is logical protestant talk. "And when the Chief 
priests and elders asked Jesus by what authority doest thee these 
things,^' Jesus asked them of the baptism of John (being himself 
baptised of John). Whence was it? from heaven, or of men? 
Yet Peter didn't seem to see where it hit him or the Papacy. 

Then came the parable of the two sons sent to work in the 
vineyard, but in it did Peter see himself or the Pacacy? Then 
came the parable of the householder and husbandmen who killed 
the servants and at last the heir that they might ''seize on his 
inheritance." A symbol of the Papacy and Uncle Sam working 
together to the same result. ''Therefore say I (Jesus Christ) 
unto you (Papacy and Uncle Sam), The kingdom of God shall be 
taken from you (a mere pretension to it), and given to a nation 
bringing forth the fruits thereof. And whosoever shall fall on 
this stone (United States supplanted a church-state) shall be 
broken] but on whomsoever it shall fall it will grind him to 
powder. And when the chief priests (Papacy) and Pharisees 
(Protestants) had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake 
of them.*' Jesus was then speaking to the United States, his 
chosen nation, and the church to be instituted on his ministry. 

The kingdom of the political end of Christ's dominion, for he 
is in the earthly Royal descent of King David, and his world 
dominion, through his throne erected on the forfeiture of the 
United States, is clearly indicated by all the prophets. Jesus 
Christ's political pretensions rejected in Asia, Africa and Europe, 
the United States started on the Old Israelitish principle, gave 
a harbor of refuge and hope in the wilderness for the carrying 
out of the old Israelitish idea, "away from the Serpent," which 
influenced every court of Europe. 

The spiritual pretension of Jesus Christ in the United States, 
is, by the influence of Satan in the form of the Papacy, and by 
adulterous relation of the government with the Papacy, polit- 
ically, wholly repudiated by a people electing a President, who 
in his belief says Jesus Christ was a liar when he said, "I and 
my Father are one, no one cometh to the Father, except by me." 
Repudiated by the Senate, which to-day and for years has had 
its spiritual devotion, a defiance of the same claim. By the 
House, in a Speaker, who voices as the will of the people through 



93 

their popularly chosen representatives, the boastful blasphemy 
peculiar to the Papacy, which in his contest over the rules fur- 
nished the Papal votes upon the floor to retain to him the power 
over the business of the Nation; leaving him under personal 
and official obligation to further Roman Catholic business in the 
House. 

Maintains under the dome of the Capitol, in the yet supremest 
blasphemy of all, the statue of a member of the Society of 
Jesus; for nearly four hundred years known in the court of every 
nation on earth as the premier association of intrigue, treason 
and murder, driven as dogs out of every second and third class 
nation of earth, whether professionally christian or heathen. 
And furnishing from her Army the President of the American 
Medical Association, the mask of the medical arm of the Papal 
priesthood. What remains, but a formally passed Act of Congress, 
to utterly boast our treason ? Just what the Almighty did to the 
Jewish Nation for analogous conduct, St. John's Revelation 
indicates, supported by the prophets of old, will occur to the 
United States.- There is no popular government, it is now con- 
trolled by the Papacy, and the next question is, does the Pope 
appoint Theodore Roosevelt king, or what are you going to do 
about it. 

Then came to Peter, the parable of ''The kingdom of heaven 
is like unto a certain king (the Almighty), which made a mar- 
riage for his Son " (Jesus). This marriage was to be a marriage 
like the union existing for a time through the medium of Moses 
as the law giver for Israel; and while Moses and the elders held 
the offices in the Church and the Nation, both were guided ac- 
cording to the will of God, which forbade adultery with Paganism 
or Idolatry. Jesus showed Peter that the Jews had been invited 
Nationally and declined, ''they made light of it and went their 
ways, one to his farm (standing for the farmers), another to his 
merchandise (the merchants). And the remnant {ih.e^ politicians 
the part not the bone and sinew of the country) took his 
servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew (metaphorically 
crucified) them. But when the King heard thereof, he was wroth : 
and sent forth his armies (tuberculosis, syphilis, pellagra, in- 
fantile paralysis, locusts, etc.) and destroyed those murderers 
(their adulterous political practices) and burned up their city, 
(made it impossible to repeat the indignity). 

'■' Then said he to his servants, The wedding is ready (the second 
coming of Christ to set up his kingdom on the ruins of the United 
States), but they which were bidden were not worthy. Go ye there- 
fore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the 
marriage. So those servants went out into the highways, and 



94 

gathered together (to the great battle of Armageddon)ail as many as 

theyfound,bothbadandgood: and theweddingwasfurnishedwith 
guests, (including " the kings of earth, and of the whole world.") — 
Rev., 16-14. And when the king canae in to see the guests, he saw 
thereaman(thePope)whichhadnot on a wedding garment: and he 
said unto him, friend, (after the Pope's pretension)howcamest thou 
in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless 
(the whole deceit and pretense was unmasked before the world, 
and at last he was in a Presence where deceit availed not). Then 
said the King to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take 
him away, and cast him in outer darkness; there shall be weep- 
ing and gnashing of teeth." ''These both (Papacy and Moham- 
medanism) were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with 
brimstone." — Rev., 19-20. The significance of this parable to 
Peter, seems not to have penetrated Peter's successors. 

Then Jesus showed Peter how the Pharisees (the liberal pro- 
testants of the time) sent to him ''their disciples (politicians) 
with the Herodians a sect owning Herod as the Messiah, as 
Papist own the Pope the Messiah. They asked, "Is it lawful to 
give tribute unto Caesar, or not?" Now Mr. Roosevelt Csesar, 
had prophetically, just taken "In God We Trust," off from the 
coins of the chosen people, and they wanted to know what the 
real King of the chosen people thought of it. Roosevelt thought 
it "cheapened" the Almighty to keep it on, "And he saith unto 
the politicians and Papists, "Whose is this image and super- 
scription? They say unto him (Roosevelt) Caesar's. Then saith 
he unto them, Render therefore unto (Roosevelt) Csesar the 
things which are Caesar's; (banishment) and unto God the things 
that are God's" (The Kingdom). 

Then Jesus showed the Sadducees, the Unitarians of the day) 
a point on the resurrection, which may not have occurred to the 
"best equipped man for the presidency, who ever occupied the 
chair." "Therefore (they ask Jesus) in the resurrection whose 
wife shall she be of the seven ? for they all had her." Then 
Jesus answered them both spiritually and physically to such 
satisfaction that they did not ask more on that question. 
Then the Sadducees and Pharisees got together just like they 
did in the last presidential election. "Then one of them, which 
was a lawyer, (and presumably the "best equipped," especially 
on political and diplomatic questions) asked him a question, 
tempting him, and saying, Master, which is the great command- 
ment in the law?" Now as the Sadducees and Pharisees who 
are in the majority in this country got together, it must be pre- 
sumed this lawyer's question practically amounted to an official 
question on their behalf politically. 



I 



95 

"Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God, (and 
not the Pope and his gods) with all thy heart (nationally, 
because you have in the charter by which you exist, made an 
implied voluntary covenant with him, based on "a firm reliance 
on the protection of Divine Providence," which God accepted, 
and became your national sponsor before the World,) and with 
all thy soul, (the essence of thy existence) and with all thy 
mind (without forgetting). This is the first and great command- 
ment, And the second is like unto it. Thou shalt love thy 
neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the 
(my) law and the Prophets/' Thus Mr. President, by the first two 
commandments and the Declaration of your National Independ- 
ence, transferring your allegiance from Great Britain to Divine 
Providence, you are precluded by patriotism, your duty to your 
fellow citizens, from advancing your personal political ambi- 
tions, by collusion and treason with a power at war with Divine 
Providence, which is Satan, Antichrist, the Pope of Rome. 

In that covenant made by your Nation with Divine Providence, 
you, your Nation itself put in this clause of forfeiture. '*We 
hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created 
equal (your new reliance the Pope denies this), that they are 
endowed by their creator with certain unalienable Rights, that 
among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness (the 
Pope, your new dependence denies this). That to secure these 
rights. Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their 
just powers from the consent of the governed (the Pope, your 
new reliance denies this). 

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive 
of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, 
and institute a new Government, laying its foundation on such 
principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them 
shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. . . . 
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing in- 
variably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under 
absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw 
off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future 
security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; 
and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter 
their former Systems of Government." 

''While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked 
them. Saying, What think ye of Christ? Whose son is he? 
They say unto him, the son of David/' Now they did just what 
we have done. We denied in Taft's election that Jesus Christ 
was the Son of God, and admitting him to be the son of David, 
in the earthly Royal line of succession to the ''inheritance" 



96 

promised him by the Almighty through Jacob, what if he does 
make up his mind, to take by disease, pestilence, famine or 
voluntary allegiance, this country plainly forfeited by our own 
contract to him? ''He saith unto them. How then doth David 
in spirit call him Lord, saying, The Lord said unto my Lord, 
Sit thou on my right hand, till (in your second coming) I make 
thine enemies thy footstool? If David then call him Lord, how 
is he his son? And no man was able to answer him a word, neither 
durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions?'' 

''Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples, 
Saying, The scribes ("officers of the crown") and the Pharisees 
(liberal thinkers, religiously tolerant) sit in Moses seat. All 
therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and 
do; (they are appointed after the covenant) but do ye not after 
their works: for they say, and do not." 

Lincoln left us a solemn warning against disobedience of law, 
"the charter of our liberties," and it is a notorious fact, that 
under Roosevelt, minor executives, officially showed the greatest 
criminal contempt for law, capped by Roosevelt himself in sanc- 
tioning, against provision of law and his oath of office, the ab- 
sorption of the Tennessee Coal and Iron Co. by the United States 
Steel Co., and the Pope's banker is exhibited as the Saviour of 
the country, from a new style but slick working rich man's 
panic, which leaves the common people one move nearer to 
financial slavery, while Wall Street dances attendance on the 
Pope's banker at one end of the line, and the Administration 
at the other. 

Now the Pope has the Government so well in hand, that he 
wants postal savings banks, and a new-fangled Central Bank. 
Managing both, he can have rich men's panics to amuse country 
fools, until they wake some morning to find he has their savings 
in the postal banks with good reason to refuse immediate pay- 
ment, and in his Central Bank enough industrial paper, to con- 
summate the old feudal system, which he knows so well, between 
the spiritual grandee, and the capitalist grandee, which held all 
Europe, during the Dark and Middle Ages, in a slavery whose 
resistance was death. 

To-day, God Almighty is actively entered in Papal-American 
politics; to-day, from the merciful Father, spurned, he becomes 
the unmerciful avenger of insulted Imperial dignity; to-day, in 
the blood of leprosy, he has by the hand of the Pope, written 
the doom of two-thirds to eight-tenths of our population, the 
fruit of infamous intrigue, damnable treason, and despotic am- 
bition. To-day, for object lesson, he has gazetted upon the walls 
of eternity, the names of Roosevelt and Taft, beside Judas Is- 



97 

cariot, and the spear that pierced the Master's side; to-day the 
puny hand and puerile brain of our Papal dependence, is 
matched against the subtleties which buried Egypt, Babylon, 
Nineveh, and Tyre, and left the great Roman Empire, but the 
bloody pages of Dark and Middle Ages, and the political ruin 
of the Government of Washington, Jefferson, and Lincoln. 
And, as upon that beast ''without pride of ancestry or hope of 
posterity," Jesus Christ rode over palm branches, in triumph 
into his mock Capitol, so, upon its symbol, the Pope's ''regu- 
lar" doctor, over Papal priestly palms, will he ride in triumph 
into Washington, his eternal Capitol. 

"But woe unto you. Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye 
shut up the kingdom oi heaven against men: for ye neither go 
in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. 
Woe unto you. Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye 
build the tombs (monuments) of the prophets, (Washington and 
Lincoln) and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous. And say, 
If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have 
been partakers with them (accessory) in the blood of the proph- 
ets. Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are 
the children of them which killed the prophets. (Lincoln and 
McKinley.) Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. Ye ser- 
pents, ye generation of vipers, Howcan ye escape the damnation 
of hell? (political oblivion). Wherefore, behold, I send unto 
you prophets, (Washington, Madison, Lincoln and McKinley) 
and wise men, and scribes: (history) and some of them ye shall 
kill and crucify; and some of them ye shall scourge in your 
synagogues, (Governmental agencies) and persecute from city 
to city. That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed 
upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the 
blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, (McKinley) whom ye slew 
(in symbol) between the temple (oi Papal idolatry and allegiance) 
and the altar {oi Divine allegiance). ("Zachariah,son of Barach- 
iah, according to the intention of Christ, seems to have been 
the last of the prophets, or just, slain by the Jews, as Abel was 
the first of the just who suffered a violent death." — Calmet.) 

Now this is what the prophet Zechariah said, 11-4: "Thus 
saith the Lord my God; Feed the flock of the slaughter; Whose 
possessors (rulers) slay them, and hold themselves not guilty: 
and they that sell them say. Blessed be the Lord; for I am rich: 
and their own shepherds pity them not.'' 

Again he says, 13-8-9: "And it shall come to pass, that in all 
the land, saith the Lord, two parts therein shall be cut off and 
die; but the third shall be left therein. And I will bring the 

1988—7 



98 

third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is 
refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my 
name, and I will hear them: I will say. It is my people: and 
they shall say, The Lord is my God." 

And, 14-9: ''And the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in 
that day shall there be one Lord, and his name one." 12: ''And 
this shall be the plague wherewith the Lord will smite all the 
people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall 
consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes 
shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall con- 
sume away in their mouth." (All species of leprosy.) In this 
connection, the four Chapters of Malachi are very interesting 
reading right now. 

And Jesus said; Matt. 23-20; "Whoso therefore shall swear 
by the altar, (as you did in the Declaration of Independence of 
ail earthly power, "with a firm reliance on the protection of 
divine Providence,") sweareth by it, and by all things thereon/' 
'•'And whoso shall swear by the temple, (the political fabric) 
sweareth by it, (as a forfeit) and by him that dwelleth therein. 
And he that shall swear by heaven, ("divine Providence") 
sweareth by the throne of God, (earthly throne of God as a for- 
feit) and by him that sitteth thereon, (to take judgment, upon 
default). . W'oe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, (politicians and 
Protestants) hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and 
cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, 
judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and 
not to leave the other undone. Ye blind guides, which strain at 
a gnat, and swallow a camel (a medium of traffic — the Pope). 
Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this 
generation (dispensation). Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou (by 
v^ay of identification) that killest the prophets, and stonest them 
which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy 
children together, even (as your Declaration voluntarily pro- 
vided) as a hen gathereth her chickens (states and territories) 
under her (Eagle) wings, and ye would not! Behold, your house 
(political entity) is left unto you desolate. For I say unto you. Ye 
shall not see me henceforth, (divine Providence which you 
invoked, is now withdrawn) till YE shall say. Blessed is he that 
Cometh in the name of the Lord. And Jesus went out, and 
departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to 
shew him the buildings of the temple (offering the present 
fabric of government). 

And Jesus said unto them. See ye not all these things? (that 
I have been telling you) verily I say unto you. There shall not 
be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown 



99 

down (changed). And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the 
disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall 
these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and 
of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them. 
Take heed that no man deceive you." Then he tells the signs. 
''For as the lighting cometh out of the east, and shineth even 
unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For 
wheresoever the carcass is, there will the eagles be gathered to- 
gether. Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch 
is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is 
nigh: vSo likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know 
that it is near, even at the doors. Heaven and earth shall pass 
away, but my words shall not pass away." 

As a parallel to the first coming of Christ, to claim his king- 
dom, we may for a moment divert to examine the conditions 
precedent and subsequent, if may be, we shall see in them the 
future projected, when he shall return. 

''A king then reigned over the Jews in their own land; they 
were governed by their own laws; and the council of the nation 
exercised its authority and power, (Congress) Before that period, 
the other tribes (true Americans) were extinct or dispersed 
among the nations. Judah alone remained, and the last sceptre 
in Israel had not then departed from it. Every stone of the 
temple was then unmoved; it was the admiration of the Ro- 
mans, (figuratively the earth by dominion) and might have stood 
for ages. 

''But in a short space all these concurring testimonies to the 
time of the advent of the Messiah passed away. During the 
very year, the twelfth of his age, in which Christ first publicly 
appeared in the temple, Archelaus the king was dethroned and 
banished (our twelfth prophetic year, whether from the declara- 
tion or constitution strikes in an interesting part of Mr. Roose- 
velt's career. I predict his popular dethronement, and his lit- 
eral banishment by public opinion). Q>o\)om\is(ov Corpulonius) 
was appointed procurator (though it don't look now that he 
would procure it to Roosevelt for the Pope); and the kingdom 
of Judea, the last remnant of the greatness of Israel, was de- 
^based into a part of the province of Syria ("This country was 
originally governed by its own kings, each in his own city and 
territories (similar to Old Israel). David subdued them, and 
Christ is in his earthly Royal descent from David). The 
sceptre was smitten from the tribe of Judah; the crown fell 
from their heads (states); their glory departed; and, soon after 
the death (now read coming) of Christ, of their temple (political 



100 

fabric) one stone was not left upon another; their common- 
wealth itself became as complete a ruin, and was broken in 
pieces; and they have ever since been scattered through the 
world, a name but not a nation. After the lapse of nearly four 
hundred years posterior to the time of Malachi, another prophet 
appeared who was the herald of the Messiah. And the testi- 
mony of Josephus confirms the account given in Scripture of 
John the Baptist. Every mark that denoted the time of the 
coming of the Messiah was erased soon after the crucifixion of 
Christ, and could never afterwards be renewed. And with 
respect to the prophecies of Daniel, it is remarkable, at this 
remote period, how little discrepancy of opinion has existed 
among the most learned men, as to the space from the time of 
the passing out of the edict to rebuild Jerusalem, after the 
Babylonish captivity, to the commencement of the Christian 
era, and the subsequent events foretold in the prophecy." 

In this connection it is interesting to speculate as to the time 
of the rebuilding of the temple which Jesus prophesied would 
be thrown down, and which stands for the symbol of our polit- 
ical entity. 

According to Petavius, Jerusalem and its temple were 
destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar, and Israel ceased to exist as a 
nation, B. C. 589. Collom figures the 2300 prophetic days of 
Daniel 8-14th, to be 2365 years, which gives him as a result 
our memorable year A. D. 1776, as the time of the ''cleansing 
of the sanctuary and the host." If the computation is made 
from Usher's date of B. C. 588, we are brought to A. D. 1777, 
the year of our Articles of Confederation and perpetual Union. 
''Host" here suggests the political plan or entity of Israel. 
"And his host, and those that were numbered of them." 
Num. 2-4' A political census. This is the common use of the 
word in the Old Testament. Daniel 12-12, says: "Blessed is he 
that waiteth and cometh to the thousand three hundred and 
five and thirty days!" 

This evidently refers back to the context, when Michael the 
great prince of thy people (Old Israel lapping over to the 
United States, or Israel restored) in the time of trouble "such 
as never was since there was a nation." This number of days 
is approximately that many prophetic years; days in prophecy 
being symbols of years. Adding this number of years to the 
B. C. 589; as above stated, brings us to the year A. D. 1924 for 
the rebuilding of the spiritual temple, and the reassembling of 
the political Israel, or "host." If Usher's date be taken, it 
would seem to bring this event in A. D. 1923, when the United 
States shall surrender her political identity, found wanting as 



101 

was Old Israel, her people scattered over the world, without a 
nation, simply a name. Micah says as to this rebuilding of 
the temple, Chap. 7-11: ''In the day that thy walls are to be 
built, in that day shall the decree (Judicial decree of default, 
carrying an order of restitution) be far removed/^ (geographi- 
cally?) Micah's context covers a like time of trouble and in the 
very next verse he says: ''In that day also he shall come even 
to thee from Assyria, (the Assyrian empire comprehended all 
that territory which ever belonged to Old Israel, including 
Paradise, the Holy Land, Nineveh, Babylon.) and from the 
fortified cities, (nations) and from the fortress (a place of de- 
fense usually inside the country — indicating the Papacy) even to 
the river (Mississippi), and from sea to sea, (Atlantic to the 
Pacific) — and from mountain(Rocky)to mountains" (Alleghenies). 
Clemens Petersen says the Mohammedan era dates from Sep- 
tember 20, 622, and if we add to this the "thousand two hun- 
dred and ninety days," (years) of Dan., 12-11, we have A. D. 
1912. In Ezekiel 37th, the resurrection of the dry bones (first 
resurrection) is predicted in B. C. 587, which added to Daniel's 
1,335 years makes A. D. 1922, as a speculative date for the first 
resurrection. In the 38th Chapter it is indicated in the second 
verse that Russia, whose Czar is head of the Greek Church, split 
off from or originally a part of the church now Romanized, may 
join his brother the Roman Pope, in the fight against civil and 
religious liberty; and remembering that Russia was with Prussia 
and Austria, "The Holy Alliance," and that Germany backed 
Austria in the breaking of the treaty of Berlin; and Germany is 
ostensibly courting Russian favor, and Russia is ostensibly with 
England as against Germany; that all are arming, and no one 
will talk for publication to tell what the program is, we may 
with profit keep our eyes on Russia. "Son of man set thy face 
against Gog (Gog and Magog are symbolic names for . . . 
more particularly the Tartars and Mongolians), the land of Ma- 
gog, the chief prince of Mesech and Tubal, and prophesy against 
him." The Czar is head of both the political and ecclesiastical 
power of Russia. Watson says: "Meshech was the sixth son of 
Japeth, and is generally mentioned in connection with his 
brother Tubal; and both (like the Latin and Greek churches) 
were first seated in the northeast angle of Asia-Minor. . . . 
These Rhossi and Moschi who were (are) neighbors in Asia, 
dispersed their colonies jointly over the vast empire of Russia; 
and preserve their names still in those of Russians and Musco- 
vites." Ezekiel, in the 39th Chapter, 11th verse, buries Gog in 
Hamon-Gog, and Calmet says, "a city where Ezekiel foretold 
the burial of Gog and his people would be. We know not any 



102 

town of this name in Palestine. Hamonah signifies multitude; 
and the prophet intended to show, that the slaughter of God's 
people would be so great (the blow to heathenism), that the 
place of their burial might be called Multitude." 

Or the Greek church may stand in the symbol for both the 
Greek and Roman creeds. Rev., 20-8, seems to put this off till 
the end of the thousand years, and the loosing .of Satan, but 
with Ezekiel's recital clear, we conclude that the first seven 
verses of Revelation 20, coming later in the recital would har- 
monize with Ezekiel. Warrant for this is seen in Ezekiel 37th, 
21-22, on the establishment of the final kingdom of Israel. 

''And say unto them. Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, 1 
will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither 
they be gone, and will gather them on (from) every side, and 
bring them into their own land: And I will make them one na- 
tion in the land upon the mountains of Israel; (the highest 
point of the earth is the United States) and one king shall be 
king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, nQiiher 
shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all.'' This 
prophecy of Ezekiel is dated 587, B. C. In the measuring of the 
temple for restoration, this prophecy is in 574, B. C; the mean 
year being B. C. 580, which added to Daniel's 1,335 days brings 
us to A. D. 1915. Ezekiel's description of the measuring of the 
temple agrees with St. John's skeleton description, I judge, for 
the identifying of Ezekiel's prophecy, and the time of the 
rebuilding. 

Ezekiel, in the 47th Chapter, bounds this ''inheritance," on 
the east by the east sea, the west side also shall be the 
great sea, and verses 22-23, identify our naturalization, and 
homestead laws. The last six verses of Ezekiel measure as 
I understand, the surface of Israel restored. Judah was the 
last remnant of Israel. Judah, like the United States, was in a 
sense between two seas, it was no nearer complying with the 
square dimensions of Ezekiel than is the United States. North 
and South Judah approximate our East and West proportional, 
while upon the other hand, Israel would not fit the description 
at ail. Daniel says, Chap. 9-25, ''Know therefore and under- 
stand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore 
and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be 
seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks; the street (leading 
to it) shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous 
times." It is evident that the punctuation of this verse is in- 
correct, the comma after "seven weeks," intelligently breaks the 
sentence and leaves the threescore and two weeks independent 
of anything, when, if the semicolon is eliminated, it allows the 



103 

threescore and two weeks to stand for the time of the building 
01 the street, and the wall or defenses. This symbol does not 
figure out with the others, upon the same basis of figuring, so 
we must use another analogy. In Genesis we are told that it 
took six (c7'eative)dsiys to make the earth, Siud upon the seventhy 
the Creator rested and hallowed it. Our scientific friends have 
had much scientific sport with this statement, but if we take 
Moses in the sense that he meant, and apply to it the first verse 
of the 21st of Revelation, we think "science" will realize, that 
Moses spoke not in a "scientific," but a symbolic prophetic 
sense of the "new heaven and new earth." We now approximate 
our six thousandth year of building of the earth, and are upon 
the threshold of its Sabbath; a condition, to which as yet, the 
whole earth is a stranger. 

Leaving then, science triumphant, and Moses undisturbed, in 
the orderly arrangements of the orderly Creator, we adopt this 
symbol, and start with the building of our Government, the 
"new heaven and new earth," by States; and as there are seven 
days to the week, and the Government will not be symmetrical 
under the Constitution, or a week until all the States participate 
alike, it follows, that the building — the new earth — the new 
heaven, will not be complete until seven weeks of states, of its 
seven component parts, or 49 States are admitted. 

Assuming that we may hitch on to the word Puritan for the 
root of the building of our political fabric, we go back to the 
English Queen Elizabeth when, in 1564 the Puritans were so 
named in derision, even as it was said in derision to Jesus on 
the cross: "Thou that destroyest the temple (Old Israel and 
her temple), and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou 
be the Son of God, come down from the cross." In Daniel, 
12-7 we interpret, "time, times, and an half;" as 350 years, w^hich 
added to the 1564 (date of the rise of the Puritans) brings us 
to A. D. 1914. 

The remarkable reference to Michael and other matter is ap- 
parent in Daniel, 12th, and Rev., 12th. As synchronizing with 
the Puritan symbol, Rev., 12, from the 10th verse to the close 
is a remarkable symbol of the initial history of our country. 

It can be easily imagined as related in the tenth verse, the 
celebration in heaven, visioned to John, over the birth of Puri- 
tanism, which is just a symbol of the celebration on the fruition 
of the millenium, or Christ's kingdom, come. The Puritan who 
stood for a purer religion and English Commonwealth, are 
aptly symbolized by a woman (a pure religion, when not called 
a harlot), which brought forth a man child, representing the 
political side of our government, as Adam symbolized the 



104 

political and Eve, the religious. "And to the woman were given 
two wings of an great eagle, that she might fly into the wilder- 
ness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, 
and half a time, from the face (immediate contact) of the 
serpent." Great Britain sought to destroy her, but the earth 
(European powers) helped the woman. And the dragon (Church- 
State combination) went to exterminate the remnant of her seed, 
which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony 
of Jesus." Revelation is the condensed history of the Christian 
Era. ''In New Haven we have the finest piece of land in the 
very heart of Puritanism/' — D. Colwell, Secretary, Knights of 
Columbus (Washington Post, April 15, 1904-) This single 
sentence shows the present virus of the Serpent. 

"The spot of Christ's nativity was distant from the place of 
the abode of his parents, and the region in which he began his 
ministry was remote from the place of his birth; and another 
prophecy respecting him was in this manner verified: "In the 
land of Zebulun and Napthali, by the way of the sea beyond 
Jordan, in Galilee of the nations. The people that walked in 
darkness have seen a great light; they that dwell in the land of 
the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined." Isaiah, 
9, 1:2. And Matt. 4, 15-16 in the new dispensation hsiS it: "The 
land of Zebulon and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the 
sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles; The people which 
sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the 
region and shadow of death light is sprung up." The Napthali 
and Zebulonites fought with distinguished bravery against the 
army of Jabin the younger; at the desire of Gideon pursued the 
Midianites, and assisted at David's coronation. 

And Jesus said: "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be 
preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; (which 
is now done) and then shall the end come.'' Then Christ tells 
circumstantially as does John, of the end. Then he tells them 
the simple parables of the wise and foolish virgins, and the loan 
of the talents. Then he told them, "Ye know that after two 
days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed 
to be crucified." Then of the assembling of the chief-priests, 
scribes and elders of the people (Congress) and consulted that 
they might take Jesus by subtilty and kill him." (supplant God 
by the Pope) You will notice here as Peter may not, that the 
Papacy, the Wise men and politicians got together in their 
political capacity. The Protestants (Pharisees) as such did 
not go into this deal. "But they said, Not on the feast 
day, (during a Session of Congress — too publicly) lest there 
be an uproar among the people.'' Then came the incident 



105 

when the disciples (Cabinet) hypocritically became indig- 
nant at the poor woman with the alabaster box of precious 
ointment, who presumed to approach the Saviour. What 
does Jesus Christ mean, in sandwiching into the heart of the 
Conspiracy against him, this matter of the Alabaster box of 
precious ointment? One verse preceding it is said ''Then as- 
sembled the chief priests, (Papal priests) and the scribes, (or 
members of Congress both political parties of which had the 
National Health Department scheme in their national platforms 
to catch the Papal vote) and the elders of the people, (Cabinet 
members) unto the palace (executive office or city) of the high 
priest, (President) who was called Caiphas. And consulted that 
they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him." 

What place has this Mary Magdalene, and her alabaster box 
of precious ointment, in the conspiracy against Jesus Christ. It 
is simple, and quickly told. A part I have told you members of 
Congress before, and you did not act, the Republicans, because 
they dare not shake off the Pope of Rome, their Master, and the 
Democrats if they would, could not. 

The woman is Mary D. Proctor of Hot Springs, Ark. The 
''Alabaster box," is the Superior Bath House, dedicated formally 
to God by her late husband, under the text, "Wash and be 
clean,." from the story of Naaman the leper, which is the essence 
of this same "Conspiracy Against Christ," just telling another 
incident in it. 

Four times in twenty years, it has been tried to force these 
people out of this bath house. The house twice closed upon 
them by the government, without a cause. The first time taking 
$3,000 or more of its revenue and covering it into the United 
States treasury, where it remains. 

Two years ago, ordered by James Rudolph Garfield, Secretary 
of the Interior, to do an unlawful act, despised by all civilized 
nations, and beneath contempt of common decency, and the 
habit of criminal despotism, Robert Proctor, refused to violate 
his allegiance to his Maker, his Country, and common decency. 
For this cause alleged and for no other, but furthering a treason- 
able compact with Papacy, the Superior Bath House was closed 
nine weeks, and as a direct result, Robert Proctor was killed by 
his Government, whose law he refused to break, or violate his 
conscience. 

To Joseph G. Cannon, the Speaker of the House of Represen- 
tatives, I made formal application on February 7, 1908, to be 
heard upon, and set out the wrongs, sought to be investigated 
at Hot Springs, Arkansas, under a resolution introduced in the 



106 

said House, by Mr. Representative Robinson of said Congres- 
sional District of which said Hot Springs is a part. Upon 
February 26, 1908, I formally by letter to said Speaker, supple- 
mented by further evidence, the foregoing application of Feb- 
ruary 7, 1908. Upon March 13, 1908, I by formal petition, 
preferred charges of impeachment, for wilful violation of law by 
James Rudolph Garfield, as Secretary of the Interior, and therein 
charged him in his official capacity, with the further crime of 
manslaughter upon said Robert Proctor, deceased. 

To John Dalzell, a member with said Speaker, of the Rules 
Committee of said House of Representatives, so having with 
said Speaker jurisdiction of said Robinson resolution so com- 
mitted, and so with said Speaker having knowledge and having 
read of the matter so formally addressed to said Speaker in his 
said capacity of Speaker, and Chairman of said Rules Committee, 
1, upon March 24th, 1908, made formal written appeal for hear- 
ing or action by said Committee upon said Robinson resolution 
and the matter so offered for formal proof. That from said 
John Dalzell, so a member of said House of Representatives, 
and of the Rules Committee thereof, I had verbal reply that 
they would do nothing in the matter. That by such refusal 
and neglect by said Speaker, and said John Dalzell, and the said 
House of Representatives by them so officially represented, are 
officially, severally and collectively accessory to such impeach- 
able ofTense of said Secretary of the Interior, and so accessory 
after the fact to the killing of said Robert Proctor, deceased. 

Wherefore, the said House of Representatives, being the judge 
of the qualification of its own members, I now here, petition as 
is my Constitutional right, that for hearing upon said matters, 
in said Robinson resolution and said several letters set forth, 
the same be laid before the House of Representatives for its 
action, and that said House of Representatives so investi- 
gate, or so vindicate said Speaker, and said Dalzell of such 
action on their behalf, expel or report for impeachment said 
Speaker and said Dalzell, for such action, or themselves as said 
House of Representatives, so stand sponsor for and endorse said 
actions, of said Garfield, said Speaker, and said Dalzell. 

So having failed with the Speaker and Mr. Representative 
Dalzell, I undertook the present campaign of letters to you, 
members of Congress. Of these, prior to this time, I have written 
seven, paid for largely by Marv D. Proctor, and which seven and 
their expense may stand for the seven devils cast out. Probably80 
per cent or more of the cases bathing in the Superior Bath House 
are for results produced by Magdalens, which identifies that 



107 

symbol. The waters of this Superior Bath House being pecu- 
liarly efficacious in such cases, can easily stand for the ^'precious 
ointnaent." 

With Mary D. Proctor one, Dr. Robert A. Sinapson is by mesne 
assignment a one-half owner of said Superior Bath House. 

After I had issued several ol these letters to you, the said 
Simpson being a doctor, twice solicited said Mary D. Proctor, 
that she accept ten thousand dollars for her said one-half in- 
terest, which she refused. Then another doctor offered her the 
sum of S15,000 for her said one-half interest. By this time Mrs. 
Proctor bugun to realize that her allegiance to her Maker and to 
her Government were estimated purchasable commodities, and 
like her husband, to preserve both, refused to sell. Then came 
a woman, a friend and client of said Simpson's attorney, offered 
exchange of property in Hot Springs, valued approximately at 
S20,000. Then came a Hot Springs real estate man and wanted 
to buy. Then a letter by an old patient and chum of said 
doctor Simpson, wanting to buy the Superior Bath House, and 
later still a Hot Springs real estate dealer. Antedating the last 
two incidents, a man, coming a stranger to Mary D. Proctor, 
asking the status of the property, seeking investment, went to 
said Doctor Simpson, seeking to buy his said one-half interest, 
and was by said Doctor Simpson asked the sum of $17,500. 
Within approximately three months thereafter said Simpson files 
in chancery a bill for a receiver for said property, knowing 
and having for precedent, that upon the appointing by a State. 
Court of a receiver to administer a trust committed to the 
United States, the said United States, by its Secretary of the 
Interior, would so take possession as heretofore, and so as here- 
tofore convert the revenues of said house to the use of the 
United States, and defeat the claimed and ostensible end sought 
by said bill. That in said bill for showing to the Court, said 
doctor Robert A. Simpson, so shows the total value of said 
Superior Bath House to be much less than ten thousand 
dollars, making by his own estimate, his interest worth approxi- 
mately $4,000; the same he had some three months before asked 
$17,500 for. A voluntary shrinkage of some $13,500 in approxi- 
mately three months. Against said like valuation to Mary D. 
Proctor, he claims damages of her, for $5,000, bv reason, that I 
issued to you and circulated the pamphlets, "Lincoln's Vow 
Against the Catholic Church," and the ''Political Doctor's Slick 
Little Joke." Standing by reason of the same upon a boycott 
by the doctor's of said Hot Springs, holding Papal and Federal 
license to practice in said Bath House, and subject the same to 
their Code of Ethics, and financial interest. 



108 

All this time, and for three years last past, it has been com- 
mon knowledge that the Secretary of the Interior sought to. 
take said Superior Bath House without compensation, that the 
said and other bath houses have been condemned in the interest 
of the Pope's doctors, and that the Government proposed to 
supplant said Superior Bath House with another structure. 
Thus the "alabaster box of very precious ointment," of the 
first ''Conspiracy against Christ," symbols its second fulfillment 
in the present " Conspiracy against Christ," nearly nineteen 
hundred years later. And as that conspiracy withered every 
guilty interest promoting it, so those promoting this Conspiracy, 
will find themselves imbecile, impotent, and emigrant. 

Then the conspirators having agreed, Judas Iscariot went unto 
the chief priests (of the Papacy), ''And said unto them. What 
will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you?" And they 
covenated with him for thirty pieces of silver (that would be 
ten pieces of silver for each, the executive, the legislative and 
judicial branches of our Government. Jesus in his own person 
represented all these). Then came the incident when Jesus was 
to prove to his disciples, that a professing Protestant was to be 
treasonable to him and had entered into a compact of subtile 
assassination. 

"And as they did eat, (and remember this was the Zas^ supper 
with the professing christians) he said Verily I say unto you. 
That one of you shall betray me. . . . And they were ex- 
ceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, 
Lord is it I?" They had been informed that there wasn't any- 
thing in following him on earth, except to heal the sick, cast out 
devils, and talk without gate money; no offices, no authority, 
no graft, not a single chance to beat anybody. Not one of them 
but could make as much at their old employment, and there was 
a singular lack of enthusiasm. 

"And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with 
me in the dish, {sustenance he, or that nation, that hath made 
a solemn covenant with me) the same (not he) shall betray me. 
. . . The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe 
unto that man (or nation — the same — covenanting) by whom 
the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if 
he had not been born." "x\nd as they were eating, Jesus took 
bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave ^^ to the disciples, 
and said, Take, eat; (enjoy) this is my body (to be resurrected, 
or changed). And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave 
it to them (the United States) saying. Drink ye all of it." 

"For this is my blood (sealing of the New Testament inheri- 
tance in the United States) which is shed for (you? No! and he 



109 

was talking to the chosen) many (the "remnant, ")for the remis- 
sion of sins. But I say unto you, 1 will not drink henceforth of 
this fruit of the vine,{l will not seal a new covenant) until that 
day when / drink it new (new heaven and new earth) with you 
in my Father's kingdom." You drink it to your salvation or 
damnation. Uncle Sam, you drink it to one or the other. Now 
after it was too late, Judas took the remedy. Uncle Sam will; 
he committed suicide. ''At what point shall we expect the ap- 
proach of danger? Shall we expect some transatlantic military 
Grant to step the ocean and crush us at a blow? Never; all the 
armies of Europe Asia, and Africa combined, with all the treas- 
ures of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest, 
and with a Bonaparte for a'commander, (and may be the Cath- 
olic Bonaparte just retired from the Cabinet, may have been one 
of the commanders) could not, by force, take a drink from the 
Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thou- 
sand years. At what point, then, is this approach of danger to 
be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up 
amongst us. It can not come from abroad. If destruction be 
our lot, (and Lincoln like Washington was familiar with the 
Bible) we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation 
of freemen, we must live through all time or die by suicide/' — 
Lincoln. 

Today the Papacy drinks from the Ohioan Taft. 

''Remember, civil and religious liberty always go together. If 
the foundation of one be sapped the other will fall of course.'' 
2 Hamilton, 26. 

Now this Roman Catholic Church is working for a Secretary 
of Health in the President's Cabinet, that its arm "regular" 
medicine may have power "untrammeled in the exercise of 
authority," and as Ex-Sec'y Hitchcock publicly said, with all 
"political interference eliminated/' 

"Let them beware of surrendering a political power, which they 
already possess, and which, if surrendered, will surely be used 
to close the door of advancement against such as they, and to 
fix new disabilities and burdens upon them, till all of liberty shall 
be lost/' — Lincoln's Message to Congress, of Dec. 3rd, 1861. 

"Against insidious wiles of foreign influence, I conjure you 
to believe me, fellow-citizens, the jealousy of a free people 
ought to be constantly aivake; since history and experience 
prove that foreign influence (Papacy) is one of the most baneful 
foes of our republican government." — Washington' s Farewell 
Address. 

How strikingly symbolic of Christ's farewell address.

"Resolved, That we approve the position taken by the Gov- 
ernment, that tlie pepple of the United States can never regard 
with indifference the attempt of any European power to over- 
throw by force or to supplant by fraud the institutions of any 
republican government on the Western continent, and (conjunc- 
tion — further) they will view with extreme jealousy, as menacing 
to the peace and independence of this our country, the efforts of 
any such power to obtain new footholds for monarchical govern- 
ments, sustained by a foreign military force in near proximity 
to the United States." — Republican National Platform, 1864. 

''It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task re- 
maining before us, that from these honored dead we take in- 
creased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last 
full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve that these 
dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation under God, 
shall have a new birth of freedom, and that Government of the 
people, by the people, and for the people shall not perish from the 
earth." — Lincoln's Farewell Address, at Gettysburg. 

''If the liberties of the American people are ever destroyed, 
they will fall by the hands of the Romish clergy." — The Mar- 
quis de Lafayette. 

"Foreign influence is truly a Grecian horse to the republic: 
exclude its entrance.'' — Madison. 

"A great change has come over the Republican party as far as 
its policy and attitude toward the church is concerned. . . . 
The plan of the administration of buying out the Friars and 
turning the money received over to the Church in line with the 
policy of the Church (to accomplish which McKinley had to be 
assassinated and Roosevelt elevated) and recognition of the 
Pope by this government, by sending ("his ambassadors into 
Egypt"), Ezek., 17-15, a commission to Rome to deal with his 
Secretary of State, and is by far the greatest step ever taken toward 
a peaceful solution of the Philippine question. . . . The 
adoption of the Fairbault plan in the public schools of the 
Philippines is another instance of the enlightened policy of the 
administration and of Congress. By this plan Catholic priests 
may teach a certain period of each school day the doctrines of 
the church in any of the public schools of the islands. A fur- 
ther proof of this recognition is the appointment of a great 
number of Catholics to e^overnment positions (supplanting by 
fraudulent patriotism). If fact, the Ancient Order of Hibernians 
and the Knights of Columbus have in their membership a large 
percentage of government emplovees from various States." — 
W. C. Nohe, Secretary Catholic Club, 93 1 F St. N. W., 
Washington, D. C. 



HI 

This probably is the substance of the Republican party's 
farewell address: 

''Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whom- 
soever I shall kiss, (Roosevelt said our coin motto cheap- 
ened the Almighty) that same is he: hold him fast. And forth- 
with he came to Jesus and said Hail Master! and kissed him." 
And forthwith by Congressional action we restored to our coins, 
''In God We Trust," and kept right on with the Pope. ''And, 
behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his 
hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the High 
Priest, and smote off his ear." And the Culberson resolution 
directed to Bonaparte the patriotic servant of the Pope and 
Roosevelt, two diametrically opposite allegiances, unless Roose- 
velt was a traitor to his country, or Bonaparte to his Pope never 
got into the Senate, the papers in the absorption of the Ten- 
nessee Coal and Iron Co., absorbed by permission of the Presi- 
dent in violation of law, and his oath of office. "But all this 
was done, that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. 
Then all the disciples forsook him and fled." 

"And they that had laid hold on Jesus (the Papacy, wise 
men, political Judases and their Protestant followers) led him 
away to Caiaphas the high priest, (Congress) w^here the scribes 
(the House) and the elders (Senate) w^ere assembled. But Peter 
(Pope) followed him afar off unto the high priest's palace (Wash- 
ington) and went in, (the White House) and sat with the 
servants, (Roosevelt and Bonaparte) to see the end. And the 
high priest (Congress) answered and said unto him, I adjure thee 
by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, 
the Son of God. Jesus saith unto him (Uncle Sam) Thou hast 
•said: nevertheless, I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the 
Son of man sitting on the right hand of poiver, and coming in 
the clouds of heaven. Then the high priest rent his clothes, 
saying, (Hurrah for the Big Stick. Hurrah for the Steam Roller.) 
He hath spoken blasphemy; (science and higher criticism say you 
are a liar) we are Unitarians and have no use for Christ. ^ The 
Pope is good enough for us, he puts up the votes. That's the 
stuff) what further need have we of witnesses? behold now ye 
have heard his blasphemy. What think ye? They answered 
(by their votes) and said, He is guilty of death." Hurrah for 
the Steam Roller. "Then did they (of the chosen people) spit 
in his face (by the nomination) and buffeted him; (by the 
election) and others smote him with the palms of their hands, 
(applause) Saying, Prophesy unto us (the great U. S.) thou Christ! 
Who is he that smote thee? Now Peter sat without in the Pal- 
:ace; (protesting loyalty to the Constitution and laws, see 



112 

Gibbons' articles) and a damsel (symbol of religion and may stand 
for the Lutheran protest against Taft) came unto him, saying 
Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee. But he denied before 
them all, saying, (I am loyal, I wrote the J. C. Martin letter for 
Roosevelt, and all he had to do was sign it) I know not what 
thou sayest. And when he was gone out into the porch, another 
maid saw him (more religious protests) and said unto them that 
were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth. And 
again he denied with an oath, (swearing just like a priest) I do 
not know the man. And after awhile came unto him they that 
stood by, (the popular presidential vote) and said to Peter, 
(Pope) Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech (pro- 
fession) bewrayeth thee." The definition of this ''antiquated" 
word ''bewrayeth," is, "to disclose perfidiously." The word is 
used in two other places only, in the Bible, and to group them 
to a common focus, illuminates this text. 

"Whosoever hideth her (the Papacy) hideth the wind, and 
the ointment of his right hand (the "regular" doctor) which be- 
wrayeth itself.' '—Pro'?;., 27-16. 

"Whoso ("regular" doctor) 2S partner (remaineth partner) with 
a thief (the Papacy, having usurped Christ's kingdom, claiming, 
"King of kings and Lord of lords") hateth (loseth) his own soul: 
he heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not.'' — Prov., 29-2A, 
That is with guilty knowledge he supports the Papal imposture, 
because he is his "right hand," and forfeits his own soul. "Then 
began he (Peter the Papacy) to curse and swear, saying, I know 
not the man (I am with the crowd). And immediately the cock 
crew." 

Peter had seen the marvellous works, had been taught by the 
wonderful parables, had seen the transfiguration, had spurned 
the idea of desertion, had eaten the last supper with Him, had 
lied to him, had lied about and denied him, and a simple old 
rooster, that harbinger of a new day, that could not be used to 
put up a job on poor Peter, had flashed the whole ugly truth 
upon him, "and he went out, and wept bitterly." He realized 
for the first time the appropriateness of his unregenerate name; 
that he had a heart like a rock. That nothing short of a long 
experience of dallying, culminating in the rankest treason, the 
appalling crucifixion of his King and kindred, could break his 
heart of stone. "And he went out and wept bitterly." But it 
was too late; like his brother disciple Judas (Uncle Sam), there 
were but two wa5^s open; the one Judas chose, or genuine 
repentance, and genuine allegiance. 

Three times the United States has denied Christ to all the 
world. In John Quincy Adams, and our correction came in civil 



113 

war. Next in Roosevelt, the open traitor, who symbolizes the 
"oath" attributed to Peter. Last in Taft, who being the work 
of Roosevelt, endorsed by the people, may stand for the ''curse 
and swear," of Peter's last denial. That was but a part of the 
crucifixion of Christ. The course had been marked out, Judas 
bargain had been made with the priests, the thirty pieces of 
silver paid (in votes), the conviction for blasphemy secured, and 
the national recognition of heathenism (Papacy) legally ratified. 
'Then Judas (Uncle Sam, the politician) which had betrayed him, 
when he saw that he was condemned (and with Peter the Papacy 
a partaker in innocent blood), repented himself, and brought 
again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests (put out 
Papacy) and Elders (Congress), Saying, I have sinned in that / 
have betrayed the innocent blood. 

And they said. What is that to us? see thou to that. (That is 
practical politics, "addition, division and silence.") And he 
cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, (Congress) and de- 
parted, (but his political sagacity, was no more an asset, and 
depending on politics he had nothing to do here; and there 
being no politics in heaven, consequently no opportunity to 
use his peculiar talents to advantage, so he went and hanged 
himself." And the chief priests took the silver pieces, (they 
always do) and said. It is not lawful for to put them into 
the treasury, (consecrated ground) because it is the price of 
blood. And they took counsel, (Fitzgerald probably) and bought 
with them the potter's field (oblivion) to bury strangers 
in.'' Who the other strangers were, we may only guess by sym- 
bol, of the great sympathetic religiously tolerant heart of Uncle 
Sam, who provided "For the support and medical treatment of 
ninety-five medical and surgical patients, who are destitute, in 
the city of Washington, under a contract to be made with the 
Surgeon General of the Army, (of the medical arm of the Papal 
priesthood) contained in the sundry civil act approved June 4, 
1897, or by virtue of the agreement between the Commissioners 
of the District of Columbia and the directors of said hospital, 
made and entered into the 16th day of August, 1897, a copy of 
which is herewith filed as a part of this bill and marked "Ex- 
hibit A, wherein it is provided 'that they (the said Commission- 
ers) will erect on the grounds of said (Providence) hospital an 
isolating building or ward for the treatment of minor contagious 
(political) diseases, said building or ward to be erected without 
expense to said hospital except such as it may elect, (putting in 
the Papal altar, confessional boxes, holy water, images and saints, 
etc., etc.) but to be paid for out of an appropriation iovthat pur- 
pose contained in the District appropriation bill approved March 

1988—8 



114 

3, 1897, on plans to be furnished by said Commissioners and ap- 
proved by the health officer (a part of the Papal priesthood) of 
the District of Columbia, and that when the said building or ward 
is fully completed it shall be turnedoverto the officers of Providence 
Hospital," a monastic order or sisterhood of the Roman Catholic 
church and is conducted under the auspices of said church; that 
the title to its property (the Providence Hospital) is vested in 
the Sisters of Charity of Emmitsburg, Maryland.'" ''So marked 
has been the increase in importance (to the Papacy) of the med- 
ical profession in governmental agencies (for the building of 
Catholic Hospitals and churches) that the doctors themselves 
have organized a movement (like this of the Surgeon General 
and the Sisters of charity) for the unification (in Papal Church- 
State) of all agencies in the (heretofore) Federal Government 
used to promote the public health (moral and physical) into one 
bureau or department." — W. H. Taft. 

In this insidious, serpentine, political trading method, bring- 
ing the people under the curse of Almighty God, the irreconcil- 
able foe of Papacy. 

Blasting us with the ''grievous noisome sore," of the sixteenth 
of Revelation, evidenced in the prevalent tuberculosis, loath- 
softie venereal diseases, infantile and premature blindness, loco- 
motor ataxia, pellagra, the hook worm, infantile paralysis, all 
comparatively new diseases, as a direct result of supporting this 
medical arm of the Papacy, cursed 2650 years ago, in its "head, 
tail branch or rush." 

Cleveland, Ohio, April 16 (1909). — "A national movement 
among the Knights of Columbus of America to secure the ap- 
pointment of another member of President Taft's Cabinet to be 
known as the Secretary of Health has been started here." — 
Washington Times. 

"Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the 
Prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the 
price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of 
Israel did (in amount) value/' 

"Therefore, when they were gathered together, (at the polls) 
Pilate (public opinion) said unto them, Whom will ye that I 
release unto you? Barabbas or Jesus which is called Christ? 
For he knew that for envy they had delivered him. When he 
was set down (in later reflection) on the (final, inevitable) judg- 
ment seat, his wife (a good conscience) sent unto him, saying. 
Have thou nothing to do with that just man: (under these cir- 
cumstances) for I have suffered many things (many diseases) 
this day in a (hvpnotic) dream because oi him. But the chief 
priests (and those in political place) persuaded (educated) the 



115 

multitude (the voter) that they should ask Barabbas, (see 
National Health plank in both Republican and Democratic 
national platforms) and destroy Jesus." Barabbas was a noto- 
rious robber, g;uilty also of sedition and murder, ''the Armenian 
has it 'Whom will ye that I deliver unto you; Jesus Barabbas, 
or Jesus who is called Christ?" 

So he belonged to the same political complexion of the priests 
and politicians, who were worki7ig the multitude. It is not 
known what country Pilate was from, and he may properly 
stand here for a symbol of heathenism. 

Out of a career merciless in character, steeped in judicial 
crime, Pilate's action toward Jesus: ordering the inscription 
properly attesting Jesus' claim to be placed over his head upon 
the cross, and peremptorily refusing to alter it when requested 
by the Jews; giving leave to the removal of Jesus' body; plac- 
ing a guard over the sepulchre, and publicly washing his hands 
of the blood of the crucifixion, in words which reach from the 
crucifixion to the second coming, "/(the heathen, and not of 
the chosen, or professed, or called; clear outside of the 
churches) am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye 
to it.*' 

Pilate stands in all prophetic and profane history a monument 
to that large class, who, not following him, have at least that 
respect for his claims, that they attest their belief in their genu- 
ineness in basing what we call profane oaths upon them, and too 
much respect for them, to make a profession of them, which 
they belie with treasonable action. 

"Then the soldiers of the governor (President) took Jesus 
into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of 
soldiers. And they stripped him, (changed his whole character 
among them) and put on him a scarlet robe." The Papal red, 
with which the whole Army and Navy is honeycombed. Dr. 
Leonard Wood jumped nearly 500 numbers to nearly the top of 
the list, to have one of the doctor arm in command of the Army 
when the change is attempted, and Admiral Rixey, securing 
command of ships by doctors upon his *Memand" upon Roose- 
velt. A cheap play upon the public, helping the Papacy through 
this subterfuge, to a like hold on the Navy against the time of 
uprising to "supplant by fraud. "And when they had platted 
a crown of thorns they (soldiers and sailors, symbol of our de- 
fensive power) put it upon his head, and sl reed (symbol of weak 
or ineffective power) in his right hand: and they bowed the 
knee before him, (when the army and navy priest celebrates the 
mass) and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!" 

"And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, (a city 



116 

in Africa) Simon by name : him they compelled to bear his cross." 
Now the Simonians, are an infidel sect, whose fundamental 
principle is, that religion is to perfect the social condition of 
man; therefore Christianity is no longer suitable for society, be- 
cause it separates the Christian from other men, and leads him 
to live for another world ; (something like Dr. Eliot's religion). 
They consider the Deity neither as spirit nor matter, but as in- 
cluding the whole universe . . . and they regard evil as 
nothing more than an indication of the progress which mankind 
are doomed to make in order to be freed from it; in itself, they 
maintain it is nothing. Its members are principally of the higher 
ranks, and are displaying not without success, the greatest ac- 
tivity in spreading the venom of their infidel principles. They 
occupy in Paris, the largest and most handsomely fitted halls, 
(Universities and Medical schools like Yale and Harvard) where 
they meet in great numbers. What is very curious in the history 
of the St. Simonians is, that they were at first merely philoso- 
phers, and not at all founders of a religion. They spoke of 
(taught) science and industry, (political economy) but not of 
religious doctrine. 

All at once, however, it seemed to occur to them to teach a 
religion. Then their school became a church, and their associa- 
tion a sect." (Hend-Buck). 

So science is the African employed by the Papacy, through 
Yale and Harvard and other schools teaching ''regular" medi- 
cine, to crucify pure religion and pure patriotism. As an ex- 
ample, the Indiana State Board of Health issue a Scientific 
"Health Circular" on Social Hygiene vs. the Sexual Plagues with 
their rapid invasion of the American home/' which with tubercu- 
losis, refers us to Rev. 16-2, to the ''noisome and grievous sore*' 
promised us as a result of our adulterous relations with the 
Papacy, through their "regular" apostolic arm, of which Isaiah, 
in 19-14th says : "The Lord hath mingled a perverse spirit in the 
midst thereof: and they have caused Egypt (Papacy) to err in 
every v^ork thereof, as a drunken man (irresponsible and vicious) 
staggereth in his vomit." This Indiana circular gotten out by 
the Papal apostolic "regular" succession, is mighty interesting 
reading. ^'Eighty per cent of males, between the ages of 18 and 
30 years, contract gonorrhea . . . some hospital authorities 
assert seventy per cent, others 85 per cent of abdominal and 
pelvic surgical operations on women are the result of gonorrheal 
infection, in many cases ignorantly transmitted by the husband." 
"Do you know that a husband may infect his wife with either 
syphilis or gonorrhea long after he may think himself free from 
the disease?" "Do you 'know that gonorrheal infection is 



117 

responsible for 20 to 30 per cent of blindness? Formerly an as- 
serted 80 per cent, until the discovery of the Crede method of 
applying a solution of nitrate of silver (mineral) to the eyes of 
the new born." ''Do you know that gonorrhea is a principal 
cdiM^Q oi race suicide? '' ''Do you know that practically every 
prostitute is infected, if not today, then tomorrow, and continu- 
ously as long as she follows prostitution? " "A girl, in an Indi- 
ana school, recently seduced and contaminated thirteen boys 
attending the school." Then this advertisement for a National 
Health Department scheme closes with the hypocritical effusion: 
"Let us then hear the conclusion of the whole matter. Fear God 
and keep His commandments, (but vote for the Pope to give us 
the public Pap) for this is the whole duty of man." And this 
scientific arm of the Papacy closes this circular issued by the 
child of adulterous relation with the State of Indiana with the 
Papacy, in these prophetic words: "For God shall bring every 
work (the identical words used by Isaiah for the Papacy under 
the symbol of Egypt) into judgment with every secret thing 
whether it be good or whether it be evil. Ecclesiastes, 12:13-14." 
And as a final mark of "apostolic regularity," the oleaginous and 
unctuously self-righteous, add in bold face caps much larger 
than, and scientifically endorsing the Bible quotation: **And so 
he does/' This, part of the prophecy these gentlemen, living 
their expectancy, will see- 

If these brethren of the Papal priesthood, will search their 
brethren the celibates who are not, but should be eunuchs, and 
find how many of them for a contribution of twenty-five dollars 
to a Papal school to teach treason in, will grant common prosti- 
tutes absolution and indulgence for a year ahead, they may find 
that for money, regularly levied on prostitutes, the priest makes 
it a part of his business to propagate "the sexual plagues with 
their rapid invasion of the American home.'* With honors easy 
on oleaginous, hypocritical unction, between the two arms of 
the Papacy, it is now a race between them to see which can 
make the most money for Satan out of treason and human 
misery. The priest with his absolution and indulgences for 
money to prostitutes, or the "regular" with his mercury, and 
invaccinated tuberculosis and syphilis. "For God shall bring 
every work into judgment with every secret thing whether it be 
good or evil," "and so He does.'' 

"And the first went, (Rev. 16-2) and poured out his vial (of 
wrath and curse) upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and 
grievous sore upon the men (the doctors) which had the mark of 
the beast (Papacy), andw^ou them which worshipped his image."

Or adhered in any way to him. You notice the distinction be- 
tween those who have his mark, the "regular" doctors, and the 
''worshippers" who take their medicines. In this connection it 
may be well to recall what Cato said to the Romans when they 
adopted Cato's hint, but not the Greek system of medicine. 
''The race of Greeks (Papists) is very vicious] and, my son, be- 
lieve this as the voice of an oracle, (now endorsed by the Indiana 
State Board) that, with its literature, it will spoil everything 
at Rome. It will be worse still if it sends us its physicians, 
they have sworn among themselves to kill all other nations (make 
them dependent) with their medicines. They exercise their art 
for the sake of ^am, (political and financial) and seek to get our 
confidence (through such methods of literature as the Indiana 
State Board) in order to be able to poison us the more easily." 

Roosevelt is a product of Harvard, one of the leadijig medical 
schools of the country. Taft is a product of Yale, one of the 
leading medical schools of the country; both teaching the Papal 
or "regular" system of medicine. Roosevelt was the forefront 
for the tuberculosis Congress, and sent two messages well timed 
in that excitement to Congress, for the National Health scheme. 
Taft for his opportunities for "my dear friends," has not been a 
mean second. Are you surprised to read an Indianapolis tele- 
gram to the Evening Sun of Sept. 21st, 1909, as follows : "Indian- 
apolis, Sept. 21. . . . Belief that before many years a man 
will be chosen from the Catholic church to fill the chair of the 
Presidency of the United States was expressed by Congressman 
Charles A. Korbly (who lies in his oath to the Speaker if he is a 
good Papist), who spoke at an informal reception given to the 
members of the Central Verein by the Knights of Columbus. 
Mr. Korbly declared that the Catholic church had great influence 
with the present Administration, and that its influence in polit- 
ical affairs was becoming constantly greater. 

He went so far as to say that rumors had reached his ears that 
a former president (Roosevelt only one alive) was ^oon to pro- 
fess the Catholic faith, although he did not give the authority 
for his belief." It is a pretty scheme which bundles Roosevelt 
out of the country before he is drawn into any controversy, 
divert attention to his deeds of prowess to endear him to the 
American heart, w^hile Taft sits on the lid; make a formal call on 
the Pope, *^my warm personal regards'* on the way home, deny 
to the Protestant fools that he is to become a Catholic; arrive 
in time to have a great ovation at Catholic New York a steam 
roller nomination, triumphant election with the republican 
effective machinery in assistant Papal hands, turn the govern- 



119 

merit over to the Pope, and become his American vassal as 
Theodore First, the ''Apostolic King" of the United States, De- 
fender of the Faith, including poisoning, prostitution and the 
assassination society, better known as the ''Society of Jesus." 

"An angel of death slew the first born of the Egyptians; a 
destroying angel wasted Sennacherib's army; an avenging angel 
smote the people of Israel with a pestilence, after David's sin, 
and the Philistine's were smitten with an ignominious disease, 
for not treating the ark with adequate respect. 

These diseases, and others that we read of, were evident in- 
terpositions of Providence, by whatever agency they were pro- 
duced." — Calmet. 

On Roosevelt's bloody accession, McKinley's policy in the 
Philippines was reversed, the Pope's adopted, and Roosevelt has 
been a Papal tool ever since. Out of this bloody Belshazzar 
impious feast, the Almighty has written in the blood of Mc- 
Kinley, with the finger of the prophetic Lincoln, on the wall of 
the Great Republic, '^Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin.'' "Oh thou 
king, the most high God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father (King 
of Babylon, our symbol) a kingdom, and majesty, and glory, 
and honor: And for the majesty that he gave him, all people, 
nations, and languages, trembled and feared before him: whom 
he would he slew; and whom he would he kept alive; and 
whom he would he set up (Cuba); and whom he would he put 
down (Spain). But when his heart was lifted up, and his mind 
hardened in pride, he was deposed from his kingly throne, and 
they took his glory from him: And he was driven from the sons 
of men; and his heart was made like the beasts, and his 
dwelling was with the wild asses: (Democratic donkey) and they 
fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of 
heaven; till he knew that the most high God ruled in the king- 
dom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he will. 
And thou his son (successor's representative), Belshazzar (King 
of Babylon our symbol), hast not humbled thine heart, though 
thou knewest all this; But hast lifted up thyself against the Lord 
of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before 
thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, 
have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of 
silver (Papal doctors), and gold (Papal priests), of brass, iron, 
wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the 
God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, 
(Uncle Sam) hast thou not glorified:" "This is the interpreta- 
tion of the thing: Mene; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and 
finished it. Tekel; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art 
found wanting. Peres; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to 



120 

the Medes and Persians." The people with unchangeable laws, 
symbol of the law of God. 

''Weep ye not for the dead, neither bemoan him: (the party) 
but weep sore for him that goeth away: for he (Roosevelt) 
shall return no more, nor see his native country. For thus 
saith the Lord touching Shallum the son of (successor of) 
Josiah (McKinley) king of Judah, which reigned instead of 
Josiah his father, which went forth out of this place; He shall not 
return thither any more: But he shall die in the place whither 
they have led him captive, and shall see this land (Judah, the 
last kingdom of Israel our symbol) no more. Woe unto him 
that buildeth his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers 
by wrong; that useth his neighhoi^'s service without wages, and 
giveth him not for his work; That saith, I will build me a wide 
house and large chambers, and cuttethhimout windows; (luxury) 
and it is ceiled with cedar, (power) and painted with vermilion. 
(Papal red) Shalt thou reign, because thou closest (inclose) thy- 
self in cedar? (power) did not thy father (predecessor) eat and 
drink, and do judgment and justice, (Cuba and generally) and 
then it was well with him? He judged the cause of the poor and 
needy: (Cubans) then it was well with him: was not this to 
know me? saith the Lord. But thine eyes and thine heart are 
not but for thy covetousness, and for to shedinnocent blood, and 
for oppression, and for violence, (Catholic scheme) to do it. 
Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning Jehoiakim (to identify 
by symbol name) the son of Josiah king of Judah." — Jer.22-10. 
"Jehoiakim, or Eliakim, brother and successor of Jehoahaz, king 
of Judah, was made king by Necho, king of Egypt, (symbol of the 
Papacy) at his return from an expedition against Carchemish." — 
2Kings23:34'-36. Carchemish, a town situated on the banks of the 
Euphrates, (Mississppi symbol) and belonging to the Assyrians, 
from whom it was taken by Pharaoh-Necho, king of Egypt. — 
2 Chron. 35-2 ). The Egyptians (Papacy) left a garrison in it, 
and in the fourth year of Jehoiakimkingof Judah,Nebuchadnezzar, 
the king of Babylon, retook it and cut the garrison to pieces. 
The prodigious slaughter (battle of Armageddon) of the Egyp- 
tians which took place on this occasion, was foretold by the 
prophet Jeremiah in a very animated style, and with great 
poetic energy and liveliness of coloring. — Jer. 46-1. "They did 
cry there, Pharaoh king of Egypt is but a noise; he hath passed 
the time appointed (lost his temporal power). In the third and 
fourth verses of that chapter, the mighty preparations of the 
Egyptians for the contests are described, and the prophet, who 
foresees the defeat, is led to express his astonishment at an event 
so contrary to what might have been expected. But he accounts 



121 

for it, by (ver. 10) resolving the whole into Divine disposal, 
Jehovah having decreed that neither swiftness (cunning) or 
strength (entrenchment) should avail, or protect from the im- 
pending overthrow; the king of Egypt is represented as coming 
up to the assistance of the garrison (supplant by fraud and aid 
of Europe) animated with all the ostentation and insolence of 
anticipated success. He is compared to a mighty river such as 
the Nile, or the Euphrates, when they overflow their banks, and 
threaten to overwhelm the country with desolation and ruin. 
The prophet seems to hear him calling aloud to the nations of 
which his army is composed, giving them the signal for action, 
and rousing them to deeds of desperate valor; but all in vain, 
since the time is come for God to avenge himself of his Ancient 
foes, who are doomed to slaughter, and fall a bloody sacrifice on 
the plains of the north. The whole concludes with an apos- 
trophe to the daughter of Egypt, (Papacy) whose wound is pro- 
nounced incurable, and her disgrace universally known ; forasmuch 
as the number of her warriors have only served to augment the 
scene of confusion, and more effectually to destroy each other 
(ver.11-12). ''They shall not lament forhim, saying, Ah my brother! 
or, Ah sister! They shall not lament for him,saying Ah lord! or, Ah 
his glory! He shall be buried with the burial of an ass, (popular 
disapproval) drawn and cast forth (banished by popular pro- 
test) beyond the gates of Jerusalem" (symbol of U. S. or Wash- 
ington). ''Go go up to Lebanon, (a high mountain, the U. S.) 
and cry; and lift up thy voice in Bashan, (the northern part of 
the country east of the Jordan (Mississippi) in the vicinity of 
New York) and cry from the passages; (Pasaginians; they had 
the utmost aversion to the dominion and discipline of the church 
of Rome. Mosheim- William) for all thy lovers are destroyed. 
I spake unto thee in thy prosperity; but thou saidst, I will not 
hear. This hast been thy manner from thy youth, that thou 
obeyedst not my voice. The wind shall eat up all thy pastors, 
and thy lovers (Papacy) shall go into captivity: surely then 
shalt thou be ashamed and confounded for all thy wickedness." — 
Jeremiah, 22. 

"And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying. Son of man, 
put forth a riddle, and spenk a parable unto the house of 
Israel; And say, Thus saith the Lord God; A great eagle with 
great wings, long winged, full of feathers, which had divers 
colours, (subdivisions or States) came unto Lebanon (which fur- 
nished the wood for Solomon's temple), and took the highest 
branch of the cedar: (symbol of kingly power — the highest, the 
highest type, or greatest). He cropped off the top of his young 
twigs, (lofty) and carried it into a land of traffic; he set it in a 



122 



city (nation) of merchants. He took also of the seed of the 
land, (earthly power symbol) and planted it in a fruitful field; 
(civil and religious liberty U. S. A.) he placed it by great waters, 
(Atlantic, Pacific, Mississippi) and set it as a willow tree- (The 
willow has a great variety of uses, symbolic of our diversified 
industries, and the weeping willow is also an emblem of grief). 
And it grew, and became a spreading vine of low stature, (it 
couldn't grow low without spreading) whose branches turned 
(politically) toward him, (Almighty) and the roots thereof were 
U7ider him: (nourished of him), so it became a vine, and brought 
forth branches (States), and shot forth sprigs (territories). 
There was also another great eagle with great wings and many 
feathers: (but not of divers colors) and, behold, this vine (the true 
church) did bend herroots toward him, (Almighty) that he might 
water it (the State) by the furrows of her (the true church's) 
plantation. It was planted in a good soil by great waters, that 
it might bring forth branches (by strengthening pure religion in 
other nations), and that it might bear fruit, (national and per- 
sonal salvation) that it might be a goodly vine. Say thou, 
Thus saith the Lord God; Shall it prosper? shall he not pull up 
the roots thereof, (political foundation) and cut off the fruit 
thereof, that it wither? it shall wither in all the leaves of her 
spring, (short life compared with possibilities), even without 
great power or many people to pluck it up by the roots thereof. 
Yea, behold, being planted, shall it prosper? shall it not utterly 
wither, when the east wind toucheth it (Almighty's wrath)? it 
(the Republic) shall wither in the furrows where it grew. More- 
over the word of the Lord came unto me, saying. Say now to the 
rebellious house, (nation Pope has supplanted Christ.) 

Know ye not what these things mean? tell them. Behold, 
the king of Babylon is come to Jerusalem (Washington), and 
hath taken (taken in a snare) the king thereof, and the princes 
thereof (Congress), and led them with him to Babylon (Popery )7 
And hath taken of the king's seed, and made a covenant 
with him, and hath taken an oath of him: he hath also taken the 
mighty of the land: That the kingdom might be base (abased), 
that it might not lift itself up, but that by keeping of his cove- 
nant it might stand. But he rebelled against him (Jesus Christ) 
in sending his ambassadors into Egypt, that they might give him 
horses and much people (dominion)." ''As horses appear to have 
been furnished by Egypt (Papal votes), God prohibits these, 
First. Lest there should be such commerce with Egypt as might 
lead to idolatry. Second. Lest the people might depend on a 
well-appointed cavalry (Papal votes) as a means of security, and 
so cease from trusting in the promised aid and protection of 



123 

Jehovah. Third. That they might not be tempted to extend 
their dominion by means of cavalry, and so get scattered among 
the surrounding idolatrous nations, and thus cease, in process 
of time, to he that distinct and separate people which God in- 
tended they should he, and without which the prophecies rela- 
tive to the Messiah could not be known to have their due and 
full accomplishment. It seems that the Egyptian horses were 
in high repute (so is the Papal vote), and were much used in 
war (having ruined the Democratic party and now ruining the 
Republican). When the Israelites were disposed to place too 
implicit confidence in the assistance of cavalry, the prophet re- 
monstrated in these terms: ''The Egyptians are men, and not 
God: and their horses are flesh, not spirit." — Isa., 31-3. Wat- 
son- Cahnet.

or shall he (Jehovah) hreak the covenant, (with the United 
States) and be delivered ? (rescind the contract and withdraw

an high mountain: (a direct representative of the Messiah, or a 
''Branch," as the Scriptures have it, and as it seems to be here 
literally rendered. . . . ) In the mountain (U. S.) of the 
height (Capitol) of Israel will I plant it: and it shall bring forth 
boughs, and bear fruit, and be a goodly cedar: and under it 
shall dwell all fowl of every wing; (extended dominion) in the 
shadow (protection) of the branches (under or subject kingdoms)

tree, (United States) have exalted the low tree, (those truly 
Israel in religious and political spirit-Puritans-Paulicians) have 
dried up the green tree, (Mohammedanism) and have made the 
dry tree (Roman Church, purged of Papacy, become Paulician, 
takes her original place, as the Church founded by Jesus Christ) 
to flourish: (a universal merging) I the Lord have spoken and 
have done it '' (decreed it). — Ezekiel 17. 

Thus the Bible is crowded chapter after chapter in the Old 
and New Testaments, of notice to us, the final object of all 
creation; written in symbol, that we might have free rein with 
our free moral agency, and give ample justification for all the 
judgments which have already come in our scourges of tuber- 
culosis and loathsome diseases; so prevalent we can not escape 
decimation by them to the point of yielding allegiance, or utter 
extermination in defying Almighty power. Upon us has been 
lost, the histories of sand swept Egypt, buried Nineveh, Baby- 
lon, Petra, Bashan, Moab, and Ammon, Philistia, the palaces of 
Tyre, razed in Almighty wrath, whereon to dry the nets of fisher- 
men; Sidon, Samaria, Damascus, and Jerusalem. The arc lights 
from Paradise lost to Paradise regained; and as the circuit is 
closed on Capitol hill at Washington, lo, the essence of the 
message that God gave to Adam, is flashed to all the world, 
''The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the NATIONS that 
forget God.''— Ps., 9-17. 

While Peter pondered over all his association with Jesus; how 
in spirit he had crucified him in his mistakes, his forfeiture of 
allegiance, his lying to him, thrice ashamed and denying him 
who had lifted him from the wave, and taught so patiently; 
Jesus was hanging on the cross; not a victim of spiritual, but of 
political disappointment. 

If the teaching of Jesus the patient, and true, be true, I, Peter 
have crucified him more cruelly, than those who had never given 
him allegiance. 



125 

The Jews might have a justification of a false pretense, to im- 
pute to Jesus; they had a color for it, for he spake as never man 
spake before, and his kingly claim was of the essence of faith. 
There was no such excuse for Peter, he had not been deceived. 
It was true, Peter had some sort of works to his credit, for he 
got mad and smote off the ear of a servant of the high priest, 
but servants were plentiful and cheap, and who shall draw the 
line between works, and a spasm? He like we, had three oppor- 
tunities, (Franklin Pierce, Theodore Roosevelt, and W. H. Taft) 
to vindicate and own his Master, and justify to the world, his 
kingly claim; but he denied. 

Whether while Jesus hung upon the cross, or after the stone 
which the chief priests and politicians had put against the door 
of the sepulchre had been rolled away, the dead stone in Peter's 
heart had been made a living stone, we know not. Jesus, long 
suffering with Peter, was very gracious to him, and seemed to 
long for his conversion, for, he seems to have instructed the 
Angel at the sepulchre, to send a special message for Peter, for 
the angel told the women, ''But go your way, tell his disciples 
— a-n-d Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee." Here 
was a special invitation to erratic, doubting, lying, swearing, 
denying Peter, sent through an angel, to remember he had an 
appointment with Jesus, just after resurrection. That, if he had 
not been converted before, was to be the Supreme test, exclud- 
ing all doubt. Maybe Jesus, thought if he could convince Peter, 
he had a show for the men who said this isn't the Christ, this is 
just Elias, or some other old prophet, that talked so much he 
had to hit it once in awhile. This is just like all our citizens 
that are above the average, and do miraculous things in their 
line of business. He is a good man — but a liar. 

Jesus didn't forsake Peter. He left him no excuse, though the 
last denial was to his face. And when the women told the 
Apostles of their experience at the sepulchre, "their words 
seemed to them (the apostles) like idle tales, and they believed 
them not." They didn't believe the women, who showed such 
love and tenderness and service, in turn for that Jesus had done, 
could be converted either, so " Then arose Peter, and ran unto 
the sepulchre ; (the United States) and stooping down, (for the 
Pope exalts himself above Christ) he beheld the linen clothes 
laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at 
that which was come to pass." Though the context seems 
incomplete, it does appear that Christ appeared to the 
Simon end of the Simon Peter disciple, which signifies, "a 
hearkening ,'' on the memorable journey to Emmaus, when their 
hearts burned within them as they talked with Jesus. Now the 



126 

Bible dictionary says Emmaus, means '' Hot Springs," which is 
my home in Arkansas, but I don't find the State, mentioned in 
the Bible. This is a great tribute to these healing waters. So 
well known 1700 years before the Declaration of Independence, 
that this letter to the Pope, sent through me, is delivered with- 
out the name of the State on it. In this journey to Emmaus, 
was Cieopas, also. Now Calmet, a Benedictine Monk, a volumi- 
nous writer and able expositor, tells us ''Cieopas, according to 
Eusebius and Epiphanius, was brother of Joseph, both being 
sons of Jacob. He was the father of Simeon, (same as Simon) 
bishop of Jerusalem, of James the Less, of Jude, and of Joseph, 
or Joses. Cieopas married Mary, sister of the Virgin ; so that he 
was uncle to Jesus Christ. He, his wife, and sons, were disciples 
of Christ ; but Cieopas did not sufficiently understand what 
Jesus had so often told his disciples, that it was expedient he 
should die, and return to the father. Having beheld our Saviour 
expire on the cross, he lost all hope of seeing the kingdom of 
God established by him on earth; but going to Emmaus (Hot 
Springs) with another disciple, (the "apostolic regular " doctor 
arm of the Papacy) they were joined by our Lord, who accom- 
panied them, and on his breaking (their) bread they recognized 
him." 

Now Calmet the Benedictine Monk, of the monks that 
established " regular" medicine, and controlled it for the Church 
for several centuries, has put me in this very embarrassing (to 
them) position. I, am symbolically, (and remember its Calmet's 
fault); I am the father of St. Peter, bishop of Jerusalem, or all 
Israel, claimed by the Pope; Father of James the Less, "the 
brother of our Lord;" Father of Jude, the short for Judas; 
Father of Joseph, signifying "he shall add," so I suppose that 
makes me symbolically father of Yale and Harvard the "adders." 
Brother-in-law to the Virgin Mary, and symbolically uncle to 
Jesus Christ, which the Pope claims to be. Why shouldn't I 
talk to him until we both have the heartburn? 

In this journey to Emmaus, Cieopas tells the "stranger" in 
Jerusalem, who wanted to know the news, "And they said unto 
him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty 
in deed and word before God and all the people: And how the 
chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to 
death, and have crucified him But we trusted that it had been 
HE which should have redeemed Israel: and besides all this, 
to-day is the third (prophetic) day (between three and four 
years) since these things were done." Even his uncle \i?id given 
up hope, Siud though he had not been found at the sepulchre, 
(Washington) all they had was an angel's word that he was 



127 

alive. Now, if in the White House, and the Executive Office 
they believe Jesus Christ a liar, who is going to take an angel's 
word? But it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat with them 
(me and the Pope) as their guest, ''their eyes were opened, and 
they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight/' — J.uke 
24-31. Then Peter knew, "The Lord is risen indeed, and hath 
appeared unto Simon." (the Pope). 

Divination might have performed some of the miracles, the 
heathen world was full of wise men, but not one of them had 
ever been crucified ''between two thieves," dead and buried, 
and returned to break bread (practical politics) with anybody. 
Peter was at last convinced, and the next time Christ appeared 
they had reverence for him, and were affrighted, 

"Then opened he their understanding , that they might under- 
stand the Scriptures." Now if he opened their understanding , 
and Peter was with him three years in constant, daily asso- 
ciation and demonstration; he must have explained to Peter, 
how Isaiah, and Daniel, and Ezekiel and other prophets 
had written whole pages, under different symbols about 
the United States the new Israel restored; how he must 
die, that in a new chance for humanity, with a blessing and a 
curse set before them, they elect which they would have, that 
the Messiah coming into his kingdom, would come only to those 
who had elected freely beforehand, that they would have and 
receive him; the balance, electing to indulge their lusts 
here, and wait for no inheritance they could not see, under an 
imposed condition which they called a sacrifice to meet. It was 
a contract offered; they may freely accept, and as freely reject. 

How that, it was not incumbent upon them and their follow- 
ers to evangelize the world, but to put upon every nation, no- 
tice of this opportunity, by preaching Him, His miracles, the 
fulfilment of prophecy and a promise of eternal life, as a witness 
against any excuse they may interpose, when the Great Judge 
shall repeat: "Behold, I have told you before.'' — Matt., 24-25. 

**Search the Scriptures; for in them (read literally or care- 
lessly, with no spirit of performance) ye think ye have eternal 
life (that all the significance you attribute to them, And addi- 
tional, beyond) they are they which testify of me." — John, 5-39. 
To testify is "to give testimony for the purpose of communicat- 
ing to others the knowledge of something not known to them.'' 
Hence, a reading of the Bible by symbol or analogy, is all but a 
direct command by the Saviour. It is a command, for the 
Scriptures can not be read searchingly and satisfactorily on their 
historic and prophetic side, without symbol and analogy. And 
without symbol and analogy it is practically a closed book, and 



128 

becomes as narrow as the patriotism and sophistry of the Papal 
tool which said: ''This is purely his (Taft's) own private concern; 
and is a matter between him and his Maker (what if the Pope 
made him), a matter for his own conscience; and to require to be 
made public under penalty of political discrimination is to nega- 
tive the first principles of our Government." This Jesuitical epis- 
tolary lie has other evidences of the fine Italian hand of My 
Lord Baltimore, and if we are symbolical Isaac, of Israel, this is 
a puerile understudy of Jacob and Esau, and these infants may 
well ''tarry at Jericho (a fragrant-incense place) till your beards 
be grown and then return'' (for bigger game), for by that time 
the ''Big Stinck," and the "Steam (hot air) Roller," will have 
done their perfect work. "And he found a new jawbone of an 
ass, and put forth his hand (his X mark), and took it (from Me 
Lord) and slew a thousand men therewith. And Samson (with 
his Big Stick) said. With the jawbone of an ass, heaps upon 
heaps, with the jaw of an ass have I slain a thousand men" (all 
Popes and politicians). — Judges, 15:15. "And Jesus answering 
said, A certain man (Uncle Sam) went down from Jerusalem 
(Washington) to Jericho (Baltimore), and fell among thieves, 
which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and de- 
parted, leaving him half dead.'' — Luke, 10-30. 

When Jesus had opened their understanding he said, "And^ 
behold, I send (not give, or bring, as he had the power) the 
promise of my Father upon you: (promised to the twelve tribes 
of the chosen people to sit on twelve thrones judging Israel) 
but tarry ye in the city (nation) of Jerusalem, (Capitol of Israel) 
until ye be endued with (the political) power from on high.'^ 
Luke 24-49. I now have given you the spiritual commission, 
to be endorsed by the Holy Spirit coming on you from above. 
The political program waits for my, "tarry ye in the City of 
Jerusalem," there I join you. In the very many times Jerusa- 
lem is mentioned in the Scriptures, I find but one other mention 
of the "City," of Jerusalem, and that in the 10th verse of the 
21st Revelation; "And he carried me away in the spirit (proph- 
ecy) to a great and high mountain, (symbol of a large and power- 
ful nation) and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, 
descending out of heaven from God." 

"And He led thein out as far as to Bethany; . . . and 
while he blessed them he was parted from them, and carried up 
into heaven." — Luke, 24-51. 

Bethany is on the eastern slope of the Mount of Olives, I 
should judge in the symbolical vicinity of Baltimore. It is now 
called Lazarus' town, a poor village of about twenty families, 
with a modern counterfeit sepulchre of Lazarus. (Brown). So 



129 

Lazarus, the symbol of the man who was laid at the rich man's 
gate (or door) and the political dogs, came and licked and lived 
off from his sores, we take the symbol of the "noisome grievous 
sore," the plague of Rev., 16-2, upon us through the -apostolic 
priestly and ''medical" arm of the Papal church, and we lay this 
symbolic Lazarus at the door of the rich man, the Pope, prob- 
ably controlling more capital and ready cash than any other 
man in the world, and who probably furnished the halo about 
the head of the gentleman who housed the Tenn. C. & 1. Co., 
while he was saving all the poor people of this country from 
the r.wful havoc of a rich man's panic. If now we can fool 
ourselves into the conservation policy of a Central Bank, we 
may be able to centralize it in the ''halo," — and the Pope. 

The monetary commission, with the absolution tax on Corpo- 
rations (barring the Church) I judge will have the Pope's "Warm 
personal regards." 

It is a peculiar circumstance that Luke, the physician, is the 
one who writes of Lazarus and the rich man, and it is worthy 
of attention, the kind of a rich man he was; Luke must have 
had an intimation that the profession of medicine would be 
perverted to the political designs of Antichrist, for he is not 
satisfied with a simple description of a rich man, but goes be- 
yond his own "apostolic regular Code of Ethics," so long main- 
tained showing the Pope's name blown in its nursing bottle, and 
so long and enthusiastically sustained by that magnificent em- 
bodiment of American manhood and scientific Ass-ociation, the 
American Medical Ass-ociation, and says: "A certain rich man 
(which points to a certain identity not then named) which was- 
clothed in purple (symbol of earthly nobility and power) and 
fine linen (a symbol of the righteousness of saints) Rev., 19-8, 
and fared sumptuously every day (revelled in power and 
wealth) And there was a certain beggar (which points to a cer- 
tain identity, to be identified) and there is no certain beggar 
more easily identified, than the 'regular' medical profession, 
which from the earliest history of this country down to and in- 
cluding to-day, has begged of the national and each state and 
territorial capitol for legislation to allow them to throttle and 
kill all other systems of healing. Even now by their American 
Medical Association and dependent societies, and the Knights 
of Columbus and Federation of Catholic Societies, pushing for 
legislation for a Secretary of Health in Taft's Cabinet; getting 
in final position to subvert us by fraud and violence) named 
Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores. And desiring 
to be fed with the crumbs (National Health Department, 
appropriations, Boards of Health, Penitentiaries, Asylums,. 

1988—9

Hospitals, Army, Navy, Public Health,) which fell from the rich 
man's table (secured through the rich man's political pull, 
in trading Catholic votes for positions for their ^'regular" 
apostolic arm), moreover the dogs came and licked his sores 
(the Pope with mineral medicine keeping him sore, and 
the political dogs keeping them open by licking them), and it 
came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels 
into Abraham's bosom: (Father Abraham — Uncle Sam), the rich 
man (the Papacy) also died, and was buried] And in hell he lifted 
up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham (we are com- 
ing Father Abraham 100,000,000 strong) afar off, and Lazarus in his 
bosom. And he cried (being something of a beggar himself, in 
a rich man's panic, and entitled to a beggar's privileges) and 
said. Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, 
(my partner) that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, (real 
water, there is lots of holy water here) and cool my (blasphem- 
ous) tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham 
said. Son (and this rich man claimed to have been the ''Vicar of 
Christ on Earth," already come the second time, and equal with 
God, and able to do some things God couldn't do, and this seems 
one of them), remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy 
good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: (responsibility for 
promotion and diversification of diseases, and shortening of life), 
but now he is comforted, (consoled — forgiven) and thou art tor- 
mented. And besides all this, between us and you there is a 
great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to 
you can not; neither can they pass to us, that would come from 
thence. Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou 
wouldst send him to my father's house : For I have five brethren ; 
(more interested in their souls now than their money) that he 
may testify unto them, (that I was all wrong) lest they also come 
into this place of torment. Abraham saith unto him, They 
have Moses and the Prophets; (and what you taught them 
about the prophecies, and you have yet to learn that this is 
no more a religious question, but pure politics, and the Gib- 
bon's letter that Roosevelt wrote (?) went out of style with 
Roosevelt. 

''And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto 
them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, 
If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be 
persuaded though one rose from the dead." No, that very 
thing has been tried with you. You claim now to be Christ 
come the second time, and if you ever worked one resurrection 
on us, you and the doctors would put up another game on us. 
No, its against the "Public Health." 



131 

To the same purpose and end is the teaching of Nicodemus, 
in John 3rd. Here in the 13th verse Christ explodes the preten- 
sions of the Pope. 

In Luke is told the carrying of Lazarus to Abraham's bosom, 
and being a physician we may commend his delicacy, because so 
rare, in leaving to John, the telling the manner of legitimately 
reaching the political preferment he had so long battled for. 
''Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, 
the town of Mary and her sister Martha. Therefore his sisters • 
sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest 
is sick." Of course Jesus loved Lazarus, he was a brother physi- 
cian; not exactly ''regular," because the Pope supplanting Jesus 
Christ politically, he supplanted Jesus with Lazarus, medicinally. 
Yet just because Christ was not a "regular," it was ethical for him 
to love Lazarus, though not ethical for Lazarus to love a physi- 
cian who was not "regular," neither does it appear that Lazarus 
did love Jesus. "When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness 
is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God 
might be glorified thereby. Now Jesus loved Martha, and her 
sister, and Lazarus. When he had heard therefore that he was 
sick, he abode two days (two prophetic years) still in the same 
place where he was (he wanted Lazarus to get good and sick). 
Then after that saith he to his disciples. Let us go into Judea 
again. (Now that was strange action toward Lazarus, whom 
he loved; brother to Mary, and Martha whom he loved, that he 
should abide two days where he was, and then with no definite 
program, Lazarus apparently forgotten, propose to go into Judea 
again. A strange, "peculiar" way to treat a whole family, where 
he had been a guest; "that Mary which annointed the Lord with 
ointment, and wiped his feetwith her hair;" that Martha who busied 
herself to his entertainment; what apparent gross breach of ob- 
ligation, begotten of hospitality; what coarse plebeian manners; 
how offensively vulgar.) "His disciples say unto him. Master, the 
Jews of late sought to stone thee; (by giving the Pope's doctors 
a National Health Department) and goest thou thither again? 
Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? (Can't 
they see if they want to) If any man walk in the day, he 
stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world, (history) 
But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is 
no light in him. 

These things said he: and after that he saith unto them. Our 
friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of 
sleep. Then said his disciples. Lord, if he sleep, he will do well. 
Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had 
spoken of taking of rest in sleep. 



132 

Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead. And I 
am glad for yoxir sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may 
believe; nevertheless let us go unto him. Then said Thomas, 
which is called Didymus, (the Greek for **twin," apostolic priest- 
doctor) unto his fellow disciples, Let us also go, that we may 
die with him. (foreshadowing the death of both, the doctor 
dying the priest can't survive). 

Now John tells us, 20-24. ''But Thomas, one of the twelve, 
called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came. The 
other disciples therefore said unto him. We have seen the Lord, 
(since his return) But he said unto them. Except I shall see in 
his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the 
print of the nails, (a figurative crucifixion) and thrust my hand 
into \\\^ ^\&Q, I loill not believe. And after eight days (eight 
prophetic years) again his disciples were within, and Thomas 
with them;" (These eight days, standing for 800 prophetic years, 
reaches back to Hildebrand the Benedictine Monk and physician, 
who as Pope Gregory VII, united the twin professions of priest 
and medicine in the Papal head. He was also a carpenter's son, 
and in these three particulars, he is suggestive of Christ. 
Gregory died May 25, 1085. 

He plunged Germany and Italy into terrible wars, and as 
Germany is the backer now of Austria, and Austria and Italy 
are rivals and suspicious on the Mediterranean, it is not unlikely 
that this experience will soon be again attempted. It must 
not be forgotten that Gregory's action established the suprem- 
acy of the ecclesiastical authority over the Imperial, and that 
soon the attempt may be made jointly to kill democracy all 
over the earth and give Italy to the Pope, for his earthly throne. 

This indicates also that approximately eight years after the 
regular system of medicine is killed, the government will pro- 
vide some such scheme as they now propose. ''Then came Jesus, 
the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and ssiid, Peace be 
unto you. Then said he to Thomas, (the Pope) Reach hither 
thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, 
and thrust it into my side: (for appropriations) and be not faith- 
less, but believing. And Thomas (the Pope) answered and said 
unto him, My Lord and my God." "Then when Jesus came, he 
found that he had lain in the grave four days already. Then 
said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my 
brother had not died. But I know, that even now, whatsoever 
thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee. Jesus saith unto 
her. Thy brother shall rise again. Martha saith unto him, I 
know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day. 
Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that 



133 

believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And 
whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest 
thou this? She saith unto him. Yea, Lord: 1 believe 
that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come 
into the world. . . . Where have ye laid him? They said 
unto him. Lord, come and see. Jesus wept. (Small wonder, for 
here was the symbol of Christ's healing, taken by symbolic Anti- 
christ, and so perverted as to add to their revenue, levied on 
the promoted sickness of centuries). Then said the Jews, Be- 
hold how he loved him! (pitied him, and wept for the suffering 
like his.) And some of them said. Could not this man, which 
opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man 
(whom he loved) should not have died? Jesus therefore again 
groaning in himself, {for Jesus was preaching free moral agency 
and human instrumentality) cometh to the grave. It was a care, 
and a stone (adverse legislation) lay upon it. Jesus said. Take ye 
away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith 
unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead 
four days. (Now if he was offensive after four days of corrup- 
tion, and it was evidently leprosy symbolized, what must be the 
odor over the trail running back to 1497, when mercury, the 
foundation stone of Papal medicine and twin scourge of syphilis, 
was introduced by Papacy. It is in accord wuth the ''stink" re- 
port of the Actuaries Society, that for over 200 years at least 
there has been a more or less continuous decrease in the mean 
duration of human life in Europe and America.) Jesus saith 
unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, 
thou shouldest see the glory of God? (making the first event 
prefigure the second coming of Christ) Then they took away 
the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus 
lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast 
heard me (for ''regular" medicine the strong political arm of 
mine adversary is dead). And I knew that thou hearest me 
always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, 
that they may believe that thou hast sent me. And when he thus 
had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. And 
he that w^as dead came forth, bound hand and foot with grave- 
clothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin, (a very 
proper symbol of the way "regular" medicine is bound hand and 
foot to the Papacy; they can not adopt or push a theory, indepen- 
dent of her, they can not depart from mercury because of her, and 
the napkin over the mouth stands for no utterance against her,

simply bound hand and foot, and gagged, even garbed in the 
clothing of death.) Jesus saith unto them, ''Loose him, and let 
him go." Don't that strike you as a queer way for a Christlike 
character to act over a personal friend, over whose remains he 
had but a few moments before, wept; a personal friend who had 
suffered much, raised, purified into a different life? Freed from 
the graveyard, the Mummy wrappings of Egypt, and started, a 
free man and independent of Mummy wrappings. ''Loose him 
and let him go," just as you would order the release of an 
Egyptian dog. Lazarus, the "regular," true to the dog-licking 
association and the mummyfying entanglement, does not turn 
and thank his Master, but by the record, says never a word, 
hesitates not on the order of his going, but vanishes. It would 
be hard to heighten the incongruities of this situation, to em- 
phasize its symbolic significance. Even Mary, the symbolic 
Sister of Mercy, and Martha, the symbolic Papal nurse, who 
loved Jesus, and whom Jesus loved, are dumb, and character- 
istic when Lazarus is turned loose. "Then many of the Jews 
which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, 
believed on him." The Jews have many charitable institutions, 
and through Lazarus, the "regular," they come into friendly 
contact with Mary. Also with Mary, they object to the Bible 
in the public school, and with Lazarus they are working for a 
National Health Department and a Children's Bureau for the 
Pope. But when they see that turning from Christ is only 
turning to the Devil, and that between the Devil of prejudice 
and the deep sea of perdition, they are gone, they will turn to 
Jesus. When Jesus was crucified, "some" of the Jews connived 
with the chief priests and the Pharisees and they concluded to 
so act, because if they did not "all men will believe on him: and 
the Romans shall come and take away both our place and 
nation. Caiaphas, the high priest (John Ireland), said Ye know 
nothing at all. Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that 
oyie man should die for the people, and that the whole nation 
perish not. And this spake he not of himself: but being high- 
priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the 
nation; And not for that nation only, but that also he should 
gather together in one the children of God that were scattered 
abroad." In this case it will be different when the "regular" is 
retired "on his record," the Scribes and Pharisees will get 
together in council, and some gentleman will repeat Caiaphas; 
"Ye know nothing at all, Nor consider that it is expedient 
(politically) for us, that one man should die for the people, and 
the whole nation perish not." And some other long headed 
politician will be reminded of that other old prophet, not 



135 

generally supposed to be in the Bible, nor spruced and over 
veneered and polished in a University, except that of loyalty to 
God and his country; 'It is rather for us to be here dedicated 
to that Great Task remaining before us, that from these honored 
dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they 
here gave the last full measure of devotion; that we here highly 
resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this 
Nation under God, shall have a new hirth of freedom, and that 
Government of the people, by the people, and for the people 
shall not perish from the earth." Then some thoughtful Senator, 
reminiscent of Lincoln will nominate the Pope, for retirement,, 
and he will be elected by a large majority. 

''And the Jews' passover was nigh at hand: and many (Con- 
gressmen) went out of the country (districts) up to Jerusalem 
before the passover, to purify themselves. Then sought they 
for Jesus, and spake among themselves, as they stood in the 
temple (Capitol — God's Church). What think ye, that he will not 
come to the Feast? Then Jesus, six days before the passover 
came to Bethany, where Lazarus was which had been dead, whom 
he raised from the dead. There they made him a supper; and 
Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the 
table with him. Then took Mary a pound of ointment of 
Spikenard, very costly, and annointed the feet of Jesus, 
and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled 
'with the odour of the ointment." What Mary did in thank- 
fulness, before his crucifixion, she will in thankfulness for release 
after his resurrection "But the chief priests (Papists) consulted 
that they might put Lazarus also to death; (change from mineral 
medicine to homoeopathy and eclecticism, through eating them 
up with Federal power) Because by reason of him many of the 
Jews went away, and believed on Jesus." Their happy co-oper- 
ative relations are interrupted; the Jews begin to see that the 
Bible banished from the schools, and the doctor working to get 
the Pope in control of the Government, the Jew would land, 
where the Pope always puts him, when he has the power. "On 
the next day much people that were come to the feast, (Con- 
gress) when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, 
Took branches of palm trees, (Papal priests) and went forth to 
meet him, and cried, 'Hosanna; Blessed is the King of Israel 
that Cometh in the name of the Lord.' And Jesus, when he had 
found a young ass (a ^regular' doctor), sat thereon; as it is writ- 
ten, Fearnot, daughter of Sion; (Washington), behold, thy King 
Cometh, sitting on an ass's colt. These things understood not 
his disciples (Congress) at the first; but when Jesus was 
glorified." 



136 

''And I saw heaven opened, (Rev., 19-11) and behold a white 
horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, 
and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. His eyes 
were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; 
(States) and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he 
himself (the new name for the United States). And he was 
clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called 
The Word of God. And the armies which were in heaven fol- 
lowed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and 
clean. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it 
he should smite the nations: and he (United States regenerated) 
shall rule them (nations) with a rod of iron: and he treadeth 
the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 
And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written. 
King of Kings, and Lord of Lords." 

**Then remembered they that these things were written of 
him, and that they had done these things unto him. The people 
therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his 
grave, (and saw it was only killing an arm of the Papacy) and 
raised him (it) from the dead, bare record (went on the record). 
For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that 
he had done this miracle. The Pharisees therefore said among 
themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the 
world is gone after him. And there were certain Greeks (smooth) 
among them that came up to worship at the feast: (session of 
Congress) the same came therefore to Philip, (lover of horses — 
Hot Springs) which was of Bethsaida (Government Reservation), 
of Galilee, (''province of the Holy Land") and desired him, say- 
ing, Sir, we would see Jesus. Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: 
and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus. And Jesus answered 
them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should 
be glorified. Verily, verily, I say unto you. Except a corn of 
wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone:" but if 
it die, it bringeth forth much fruit (typical of his own death, 
and the death of the Papacy). He that loveth his life ("regular") 
shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall 
keep it unto life eternal. If any man serve me, let him follow 
me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any 
man serve me, him will my Father honor" (he will not be com- 
pelled to honor himself as the Papacy does, or pretend himself 
equal with God, as the Papacy pretends). 

Whether by reason of seniority in calling, or to teach a con- 
stant lesson to us out of Peter's disposition, for an individual 
lesson and keep that ever a reminder that the Papacy built 
upon Peter, was a false pretense, and represented him only 



137 

before he was converted, it is a singular fact, that through the 
gospels, Peter stands prominently as the object lesson to which 
we are directed. And as we near the time, when after three years 
of the closest association, with Peter's understanding not fully 
opened, the last three or four conversations related between 
him and his Master, must have burned into his very soul. 
''Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter said unto him. 
Lord, dost thou wash my feet? Jesus answered and said unto 
him. What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know 
hereafter. Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but 
also my hands and my head (typifying the prayer of the Roman 
church, when the Papacy is abolished). Jesus saith unto him. 
He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, (stray- 
ing — not perverse) but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, 
(by apostolic succession) but not alL Know ye what I have 
done to you? Ye call me Master and Lord; and ye say well; 
for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed 
your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet (not assume 
to be exalted one over another; much less to be the Lord and 
Master.) For I have given you an example, (it is now up to 
the Pope) that ye should do as I have done to you. Verily, 
verily, I say unto you. The servant is not greater than his 
lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him. 
(the Pope assumes to be equal with God, has set Jesus into the 
back ground, and practically assumed his Mediatorship). If ye 
know these things, happy are ye if ye do them. I speak not of 
you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scriptures 
may be fulfilled, (past and future prophecy) He that eateth 
bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me." This is a 
double symbol, as Judas Iscariot has been a short-hand symbol 
of the Papacy all along. Until Pentecost, and from the first 
calling Peter, like the Church of Rome, was, the eldest follower 
and stands for that part of the Roman church which shall see 
its error, and finally, or before the coming of Christ, be con- 
verted and become true and enthusiastic preacher's of Christ, 
even as Peter became. Judas Iscariot represents the incubus of 
the indulgence and sin forgiving, and murder department, which 
like medicine was engrafted on the church through designing 
men, who used it, and now use it, that its deluded, and faithful 
followers carry into political power and wealth the Papal graft- 
ers, represented by the ''thirty pieces of silver," the price of. 
blood. The Roman church is to be cleansed, as Jesus cleansed 
the temple by overthrowing the tables of the money changers, 
and those that sold doves (innocence) which will, with burning 



138 

the images and a lot of the mummery, dispose of the Papal 
curse. 

''Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you. A new 
commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I 
have loved you, that ye also love one another." Not killing one 
another. Peter certainly was not intolerant of the other dis- 
ciples, and in that respect the Papacy certainly is not built on 
Peter. "Simon Peter said unto him. Lord, whither goest thou? 
Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me 
now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards, (earnest of Peter's, 
and the Papal church's conversion). Peter said unto him. Lord, 
why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy 
sake. Jesus answered him. Wilt thou lay down thy life for my 
sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, 
(for the dawn of three prophetic days; three hundred years) till 
thou hast denied me, thrice." In the first three hundred years 
came Constantine, and that start for the corruption of the 
Christian faith, under the pretension of its protection, out of 
which grew the political, financial, hospital, industrial, and 
assassination machine, known today as the Papacy, and which 
chose Peter's name. Before the prophetic cock could crow the 
third time, or in another three hundred years, the next Con- 
stantine, sometimes called Sylvanus, the eminent reformer, and 
founder of the sect of the Paulicians out of which grew the 
Puritans who planted the gospel as represented by the apostle 
Paul, had become a martyr to the cause of Jesus Christ, at 
the hands of the system inaugurated through Constantine the 
great. Also in the second three hundred years, A. D. 606, the 
bishop of Rome became invested with the proud title of uni- 
versal bishop of which Pope is but another name. 

''Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe 
also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were 
not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and 
receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also." 
In interchangeable terms, Jesus Christ is called the Son of God, 
and the Son of Man. God manifest. God never promised Adam 
and Eve that they should go to any other heaven than he put 
them in; neither did he promise personal salvation to the Jews, 
except through the national covenant. He made a covenant 
with them for a promised land, which was not heaven, or ethe- 
real, but Moses saw it with prophetic and mortal eyes. It was 
an inheritance taken away from the undeserving, by the Almighty 
and given to the chosen, through her prowess. It was a prom- 
ised land, not a promised heaven. 



139 

It hardly seems conceivable that a God of love and justice, 
would make His first choice of a people to whom He. would give 
a promised land on earth where they had to work to maintain 
themselves, and to his second choice give a heaven much better 
of which the promised land of the first dispensation was not an 
honest symbol. 

God's original plan has not been changed, although his way 
of working it out was apparently changed through the free 
moral agency of Eve, and Adam. Later, to make the plan a 
little more distinct and impressive to us, he put it upon a chosen 
Nationality to show His ultimate plan upon the completion of 
the world, was national salvation to a chosen people, "leavening 
the whole lump." Free moral agency of the Jew defeated this 
plan, and we then had in the Garden, failure of individual sal- 
vation, which would have ultimately made a nation saved col- 
lectively. And, second, failure of national salvation, which 
would have secured individual. Then came Christ, to be rejected 
nationally, and to minister individually. We have then for the 
third and last trial of man's ability to save himself, a combina- 
tion of the two, Christ saying: ''Think not that I am come to 
destroy the Law, or the Prophets: I am not come to destroy, 
but to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven (the spir- 
itual symbol) and earth (the political symbol) pass (both indis- 
solubly joined as in Eden and under Moses), one jot or one 
tittle shall in no wise pass from the law^' (part of which is the 
covenant of an inheritance, a promised land; that to come re- 
flected in the one Moses was permitted to see). 

We hear much of the new dispensation, as though it was a 
sort of reflection, and rejection of the Jew, when practically 
about all it did, was to take away the daily sacrifice, and let in 
the Gentiles to a share of the chosen. 

We have undertaken to say it was something else, but there 
a great many things, which our opinion has not changed. It is 
evident, that America holding nationally, in fidelity to the re- 
liance on ''Divine Providence," would have achieved practical 
salvation to all her citizens even as the Jew would. It is equally 
evident, that the individual preserving individually, fidelity to 
the national-covenant to which he was committed, would have 
collectively achieved both individual and national salvation. 
We have had three trials, approximately two thousand years 
apart. Three symbols, Enoch, Elijah and Christ, that man need 
not die, except of choice. The tree of knowledge of good, and 
evil, of the Brazen Serpent on the pole, and Christ on the cross, 
simply three times teach the lesson of faith and obedience. 

"Jesus showed himself again to the disciples at the sea of 



140 

Tiberias; (John 21) and on this wise showed he himself. There 
were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and 
Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two 
other of his disciples. Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a 
fishing. They say unto him, We also go with thee." That 
night they caught nothing. ''But when the morning was now 
come, Jesus stood on the shore; but the disciples knew not that 
it was Jesus. Then Jesus saith unto them. Children, have ye any 
meat? They answered him. No. And he said unto them. Cast 
the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find (not on 
the wrong side). They cast therefore, and now they were not 
able to draw it for the multitude of fishes." Peter and two 
other denominations, with a multitude of fishes in the net, but 
unable to ''dra^^" them to Jesus, who stands on the shore. 
''Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, 
(standing both for the deceiving and deceived in the Roman 
communion). It is the Lord (symbol of the second coming). 
Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his 
fisher's coat unto him, (reached for it to clothe himself with 
righteousness, as with a garment) for he was naked and (to hide 
his nakedness) did cast himself into the sea." (Christ's unex- 
pected coming catches the Papacy naked). And the other dis- 
ciples (with coats on) come in a little ship; for they were not 
far from land, but as it were two hundred cubits, (landing of 
the Pilgrims) dragging the net with fishes." A great many fishes 
must have gotten away with naked Peter, if without him the 
others could land their fish, and with Peter they could not 
"draw" it. 

"As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of 
coals there, and fish laid thereon." Jesus had some fish, and 
hadn't been out fishing with these disciples either, "and bread." 
"Jesus saith unto them, (Peter was not in this crowd) Bring of 
the fish which ye have now caught.** Now you will notice that 
it is not plain Peter any more, it is Simon (zealous) Peter (Liv- 
ing Rock). He went to show these fellows then, that when he 
had his fisher's coat on and was presentable to his Lord and to 
the world, he could catch that big lot of fish, that got away 
with him when he was naked. "Simon Peter went up, and drew 
the net to land (alone) full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty 
and three: (this indicates that number high in the councils of 
the Papacy, turning from it) and for all there were so many, yet 
was not the net broken. Jesus saith unto them, Come and dine, 
(symbolic of the first passover, in the second coming). And 
(although John the constant told Peter it was the Lord) none of 
the disciples durst ask him. Who art thou? knowing that it was 



HI 

the Lord, (they won't want to go over the accounts at the 
Lord's return) So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon 
Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, {Jonah, and you see how the Bible 
keeps up with the vernacular) lovest thou me more than these? 
(suckers you have been catching for Jonah your spiritual 
father) He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I 
love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs." Peter had been 
Simon Peter, Simon Bar-jona, now son of Jonas. Started on 
a rock, with the keys of heaven, he had been a Jonah, queering 
the party wherever it went, monopolizing the conversation, 
now Jesus asks him indirectly, if he is anything in fact, but an 
organized appetite. ''He saith unto him. Yea, Lord; thou 
knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. 
(Be a shepherd) He saith to him again the second time, Simon, 
son of Jonas, lovest thou me? (more than the confessional 
money) He saith unto him, feed my sheep. He saith unto him 
the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? (more than 
political power) Peter was grieved because he said unto him 
the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him. Lord, 
thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus 
said unto him, Feed my sheep. (Force Gibbons to make good 
on his professions of loyalty) Verily, verily, I say unto thee. 
When thou wast young, (Papacy) thou girdest thyself, and 
walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, 
thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, 
and carry thee whither thou wouldst not.'' Here is prefigured 
the martyrdom of Peter, and the crucifixion of the Papacy, 
masquerading in his livery. 

After the Lord's sending the Holy Spirit on Peter, his actual 
conversion, there is no doubt of his loyalty or his service. 

"Peter, after various other miracles, retired to Rome, where 
he defeated all the artifices and confounded the magic, of 
Simon, the magician, (Simon Magus the sorcerer Acts 8-9, which 
stands as a symbol of the spiritual side of the Papacy) a great 
favorite of the emperor Nero; (representing the political side, 
both names standing for the corrupt alliance) he likewise con- 
verted to Christianity one of the concubines of that monarch, 
(which stands for the deceived element of the Catholic church) 
which so exasperated the tyrant, (Uncle Sam) that he ordered 
both Peter and Paul to be apprehended. 

"During the time of their confinement (present political condi- 
tions), they converted two of the captains of the guards (Roose- 
velt and Taft), and forty-seven other persons, (Dist. of Colum- 
bia and 46 states) to Christianity . Having been nine months 
in prison (Franklin Pierce) Peter was brought out from thence 



142 

for execution, when, after being severely scourged he was 
crucified with his head downwards; which position, however, 
was at his own request.'' — Fox. 

The genuine Peter, so crucified because he felt unworthy to 
die on the cross in the same position as his Saviour. The bogus 
Peter, because it starts him in the direction of his last journey. — 
Rev. 20:\. ''And I saw an angel come down from heaven, hav- 
ing the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. 
And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the 
the Devil and Satan, (the Papacy) and bound him a thousand 
years, And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, 
and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no 
more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that 
he must be loosed a little season." 

This verse also refers us back to Peter's lesson from the 
Master, '' but when thou shalt be old, thou shall stretch forth 
thy hands, (like Peter's crucifixion) and another (the Almighty) 
shall gird thee, (girding on the cross was not unusual) and 
carry thee (to the bottomless pit) whither thou wouldest not." 

The nine months' imprisonment has a most remarkable ex- 
emplification in another direction, as well as in the direction of 
Franklin Pierce. The ''Holy Alliance," of Christian Princes voiced 
its aims through the Russian Autocrat. "As long as I live,' 
says the Emperor, ' I will oppose a will of iron to the progress 
of liberal opinions. The present generation is lost, but we must 
labor with zeal and earnestness to improve the spirit of that to 
come. It may require an hundred years ; I am not unreasonable, 
I give you a whole age, but you must work without relaxation." 
This Holy Alliance of Christian Princes following the defeat of 
Napoleon in 1815, supported the principle of the Divine right 
of kings, as against the " common right of humanity " as defined 
by Lincoln. To Metternich the Austrian Prince, and blackest 
heart in Europe; next to the Papacy, the most consummate 
and dangerous foe the human race ever had ; whose king then 
as now a vassal of the Pope, it seems was intrusted the details 
of this scheme ; to be accomplished in the hundred years 
allowed by the autocrat of Russia. If we now attempt to account 
on this line for the nine months of Peter, now coverted, and 
confined as a Paulician or Puritan, and identify approximately 
a significant date or circumstance, we assume the present to be 
the approximate date of the conversion of (Roosevelt and Taft) 
or their convincing as the two captains of the guards, and of 
the 47 other persons (the District and States). 

To approximately, then, fix the taking and confining of Peter 
the Puritan, I quote from a little book entitled Foreign Con- 



143 

spiracy, printed in 1835, being the numbers of Brutus, origi- 
nally published in the New York Observer, and attributed to 
S. Finley. Breese Morse, the inventor of the telegraph instru- 
ment. "This society having ostensibly a religious object, has 
been for nearly four years (since 1831) at work in the United 
States, without attracting, out of the religious world, much at- 
tention to its operations. The great patron of this apparently 
religious scheme is no less a personage than the Emperor of 
Austria (backed then by Prussia, and now by Germany). The 
Society is called the St. Leopold Foundation. It is organized 
in Austria. The field of its operations (Catholic Missionaries, a 
batch of whom Taft addressed as my dear friends, Washington 
Post, June 11, 1909), is these United States (within a year, this 
has ceased to be a missionary field in the Papal Church govern- 
ment). It meets and forms its plans in Vienna. 

Prince Metternich has it under his watchful care. The Pope 
has given it his apostolijs benediction, and 'His Royal Highness 
Ferdinand V. King of Hungary and Crown Prince of the other 
hereditary States, has been most graciously pleased, prompted 
by a piety worthy the exalted title of an apostolic king, to ac- 
cept the office of Protector of the Leopold Foundation.' ''Now 
in the present state of the war principles in Europe," Mr. Morse 
says: "Is not a society formed avoivedly to act upon this coun- 
try, originating in the dominions of a despot, and holding its 
councils in his capital, calculated to excite suspicion? Is it 
credible that a society got up under the auspices of the Aus- 
trian government, under the superintendence of its chief offi- 
cers of state, supplying with funds a numerous body of Jesuit 
emissaries who are organizing themselves in all our borders, ac- 
tively passing and repassing between Europe and America; is it 
credible, I say, that such a society has for its object purely a 
religious reform? Is it credible that the manufacturers of 
chains for binding liberty in Europe, have suddenly become 
l)enevolently concerned only for the religious welfare of this re- 
publican people? If this society be solely for the propagation 
of the Catholic faith, one would think that Rome and not 
Vienna should be its headquarters! that the Pope, not the Em- 
peror of Austria, should be its grand patron. If despotism has 
devised a scheme for operating against its antagonistic principle 
in this country, the stronghold, the very citadel of freedom, it 
becomes us to look about us. It is high time (in 1834) 
that we awake to the apprehension of danger. I propose 
to show why I believe this ostensibly religious society covers 
other designs than religious. . . . Austria, from the com- 
mencement of the Reformation to the present time, has been 



144 

the bitter enemy of Protestantism. The famous thirty years 
war, marked by every kind of brutal excess, was waged to extir- 
pate those very principles of civil and religious liberty, which 
lie at the foundation of our government; and had Austria then 
triumphed, this republic loould never have been founded. Prince 
Metternich, 'says Dwight,' is regarded by the liberals of Europe 
as the greatest enemy of the human race who has lived forages." 
Mr. Morse, the reputed writer of this was in Italy in 1831 in the 
midst of that damnable spot on Austria, which will never out. 
In 1829 Prof. Morse went to Europe and resided in Rome, Flor- 
ence, Venice, and Paris for three years. 

''Over this line, (first telegraph) on May 24,1844, Prof. Morse 
put to the test the great experiment on which his mind had 
been laboring for many anxious, weary years. From the rooms 
of the U. S. Supreme court this message was sent to Baltimore, 
instantaneously received, and immediately returned: 'What 
hath God Wrought.'" 

A similar message will be sent by the American people from 
Washington, and likely from the Supreme Court of her legisla- 
tion, to Cardinal Gibbons the Papal incubus on the White House, 
and its import will not only be "What hath God Wrought," but 
it will be the whole verse, Numb-ers 23-23 (You see God loves a 
joke) "Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is 
there any divination against Israel: according to this time it 
shall be said of Jacob and Israel, What hath God wrought ? Be- 
hold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself 
as a young lion: (offspring of the British lion) he shall not lie 
down until he eat of the prey, (the Papal part of the Roman 
Church) and drink the blood of the slain.'' As this twenty-three 
chapter of Numb-ers, is evidently a key to our present situation 
we will commence at the 18th verse and analyze the balance of 
the chapter, which will illuminate the preceding verses. 

"And he took up his PARABLE, (in which the Morse telegraph 
achievement is all of this section of the symbol yet actually pub- 
licly known) and said. Rise up, Balak, (Balak "to make empty.'') 
and hear; hearken unto me, thou son of Zippor: (a "bird" — an 
eagle) This telegram, is dated B. C. 1452, and you will notice 
the difference in service since the Postal came into the field. 

Who was this Balak, "to make empty?" "Balak; son of Zip- 
por, king of Moab, Numb-ers 22-25-Balaam (John Ireland) hav- 
ing advised him ("to make empty") to engage the Israelites 
(U. S. A.) in sin, Balak, (Roosevelt) politically, as he thought, 
followed his counsel; which proved equally pernicious, (1.) to 
him who gave it (2.), to those who folloioed it, and (3.) to those 
against whom it was intended (1.) The Israelites who were 



145 

betrayed by it, were slain by their brethren who continued un- 
perverted; (2.) Balaam, the author of it, was involved in the 
slaughter of the Midianites; (''regular" doctors) and (3.) Balak, 
who had executed it by means of the Midianite women, (star 
gazers, and ass-trologers) saw his allies (the Papacy) attacked, 
their country plundered, and himself charged with being the 
cause of their calamity.^* Calmet writes this, and being a Bene- 
dictine Monk in charge for centuries of ''regular" medicine, is 
on the inside. 

Who was Zippor? "Zipporah, or Sephora; (Papacy) wife of 
Moses, {Uncle Sam,) daughter of Jethro, ("excellence") and 
mother of i.liezer {Abraham's Steivard) and Gershom, {"expul- 
sion.'') Exod-us, 2:16. The time of Moses' birth is ascertained by 
the Exode." (Now "In the Greek (Grecian Horse) drama, the 
concluding part of a play, or the part which comprehends all 
that is said after the last interlude") of the Israelites, when 
Moses was eighty years old. Exodus, 7:7." 

This eighty years synchronizes practically with the entering 
of the St. Leopold Foundation into this country; Peter and 
Paul's nine months in jail and the leading of the Israelites out 
of bondage, into the wilderness. Moses, the political symbol 
here, coincides with our eagle with the two wings., which took a 
sprig from the highest cedar of Lebanon and flew away into the 
wilderness. It coincides with Rev. 12-6: "And the woman fled 
into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God;" 
also verse 14: "And to the woman were given two wings of a 
great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her 
place." This whole chapter is a condensed account of the whole 
fight between Puritanism and Papacy, from its beginning, with 
the doctrine as preached by Constantine, sometimes called Syl- 
vanus, in 660, to the close of the "thousand two hundred and 
three score days (prophetic years) of Rev. 12-6, bringing us to 
A. D. 1920. It coincides with the personality of Moses hid three 
months in the bull rushes, a symbol for the child in Revelation 
hid from the face of the serpent. Moses instruction in all the 
wisdom of the Egyptians, coincides with the warnings left us by 
Washington, Hamilton, Madison, and the Fathers against Papacy 
or "foreign influence." 

"I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, 
like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall 
speak unto them all that I shall command him. And it shall come 
to pass, that whosoever will not harken unto my words which 
he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him. (Israel). 
Deut., 18:18. The faculties of Moses, the illustrious legislator, 
both of mind and body, were not impaired at the age of one

hundred and twenty when he died. Our one hundred and twen- 
tieth year, was in 1907. The Balak symbol of Roosevelt, above 
noted, was king of the Moabites, descendants of Moab, son of Lot. 
iiOt escaped from Sodom, the day before it was destroyed. 

*'God is not a man, that he should lie; (Num. 23-19) neither 
the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall 
he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? 
Behold, I have received commandmejit to bless: and he hath 
blessed; (determined to bless) and I can not reverse it. He 
hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither hath he seen per- 
verseness in Israel: the Lord his God is with him, and the shout 
of a king is among them. 

God brought them out of Egypt: (civil war. Papal con- 
spiracy) he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn. Behold, 
the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as 
a young lion: 

'*And Balak (Roosevelt) said unto Balaam, (Ireland) Neither 
curse them at all, nor bless them at all. (At the uprising, or 
discussion keep quiet) But Balaam (Ireland) answered and said 
unto Balak, (Roosevelt) Told not I thee, saying, All that the 
Lord speaketh, that I must do? (Didn't I tell you when it came 
to a choice between the United States and the Papacy, I would 
be for the overthrowing of the Papacy) And Balak (Roosevelt) 
said unto Balaam, (Ireland) Come, I pray thee, I will bring thee 
unto another place; peradventure (through the Faribault plan 
in the public schools of the Philippines) it will please God that 
thou mayest curse me them from thence. And Balak brought 
Balaam (Ireland) unto the top of Peor, (Washington) that 
looketh toward Jeshimon (Vaste')- And Balaam said unto 
(Roosevelt) Balak, Build me here seven altars, and prepare me 
here seven bullocks and seven rams. And Balak (Roosevelt) 
did as Balaam (Ireland) had said, and offered a bullock and a 
ram on every altar. And when Balaam (Ireland) saw that it 
pleased the Lord to bless Israel, he went not, as at other times, 
to seek for enchantments, (conspire with Roosevelt) but he set 
his face toioard the wilderness, (patriotism) And Balaam 
(Ireland) lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel abiding in his 
tents (U. S.) according to their tribes; (states) and the Spirit 
of God came upon him. And he took up his parable, and 
said, Balaam (John Ireland) the son of Beor (Papacy) hath 
said, and the man (any man) whose eyes are open (not 
bewitched with divination to do rashly) hath said: He hath 
said, which heard (studied) the words of God, which saw 
the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having 
his eyes open: (not a blind Papist). How goodly are thy tents, 



147 

Jacob, and thy tabernacles, Israel! As the valleys are 
they spread forth, as gardens by the river's side, as the trees of 
lign aloes (patriots) which the Lord hath planted, and as cedar 
trees (American kings) beside the waters. He shall pour the 
water out of his buckets, (inundate Papacy) and his seed shall 
be (ruling) in many waters, and his king shall be higher than 
Agag, (symbol of Pope; ''This savage chieftain had hewed many 
prisoners to death; and, therefore, by command of the Judge 
of the whole earth, he was visited with the same punishment 
which he had inflicted upon others,") and his kingdom shall be 
exalted. God brought him (Israel) forth out of Egypt; he hath 
as it were the strength of an unicorn: (a leviathan) he shall eat 
up the nations his enemies, and shall break their bones, and 
pierce them through with his arrows. He couched, (not dor- 
mant or sleeping) he lay down as a lion, (watchful) and as a 
great lion: who shall stir him up? Blessed is he that blesseth 
thee, (Uncle Sam) and cursed is he that (undertaketh to curse) 
curseth thee. 

''And Balak's (Roosevelt's) anger was kindled against Balaam, 
(Ireland) and he smote his hands together: and Balak said unto 
Balaam, I called thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou 
hast altogether blessed them these three times. Therefore now 
flee thou to thy place: I thought to promote thee unto great 
honor; but, lo, the Lord hath kept thee back from honor. (This 
is very apparent in Ireland's case.) And Balaam said unto 
Balak, Spake I not also to thy messengers which thou sentest 
unto me, saying, If Balak would give me his house full of silver 
and gold, I can not go beyond the commandment of the Lord, to 
do either good or bad of my oion mind; but what the Lord 
saith, that will I speak? And now, behold, I go unto my people: 
come therefore, (try your conspiracy with the Pope) and I will 
advertise thee what this people shall do to thy people in the 
latter days. And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the 
son of Beor hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath 
said : He hath said, which heard the words of God, and knew the 
knowledge of the most High, which saw the vision of the 
Almighty, (assassination of Lincoln and McKinley) falling into a 
trance, but having his eyes open (logical documentary proof): I 
shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: 
(somebody will spring it but not soon) there shall come a "^ tar out 
of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall r^'sg out of Israel, (a rod or staff of 
command) and shall smite the corners of Moab, (political adul- 
tery) and destroy all the children of Sheth (apostate Protestant 
politicians). And Edom shall be a possession, (political and 
church trading) Seir (Papal practices) also shall be a possession 



148 

for his enemies; and Israel (patriots)shall do valiantly. Out 
of Jacob shall come he that shall have dominion, and shall 
destroy him (Papacy) that remaineth of the city. 

''And when he looked on Amalek, (the Papacy) he took up his 
parable, and said, Amalek was the first of the nations; (chosen) 
but his latter end shall be that he perish forever. And he 
looked on the Kenites, (Protestants) and took up his parable, 
and said. Strong is thy dwelling place, (in the hearts of the 
people) and thou puttest thy nest in a rock, (a sure foundation) 
Nevertheless the Kenites shall be wasted, until Asshur shall carry 
thee away cap tive(Asshur-Assuritans-Unitarians-Humanitarians). 
And he' took up his parable, and said, Alas, who shall live when 
God doeth this! And ships shall come from the coast of Chit- 
tim, (Mediterranean) and shall afflict Asshur, (Gentile pilgrim) 
and shall afflict Eber, (Israelitish Pilgrim) and he also shall perish 
forever (line of distinction between Jew and Gentile will be 
wiped out). 

"And Balaam (Ireland) rose up, and went and returned to his 
place: and Balak also went his way." 

I take it that Numbers 21 is the history of our civil war, the 
foregoing chapters of Numbers being a history of the different 
phases of our governmental history, the overthrow of Papacy. 

Skeletonizing Numbers 22nd to the 18th verse, we remark in 
advance that Moab, is the symbol for the United States, in a very 
wide sense, for the Republican party in a narrower sense. The 
Jordan is the Mississippi, and Jericho is Baltimore, inasmuch as 
the Cardinalate of America is located there. That Balak is 
Roosevelt, and the Amorites, the Southern Confederacy. The 
elders of Midian, are ''regular" doctors, a part of the Roman 
priesthood. The Midianites at this time were "carrying spices, 
the produce of the East, (symbol of Christ the Divine Physician 
and his 'star in the East') into Egypt; (symbol of the Papacy) 
and taking Gilead in their way, to add the celebrated and highly 
prized balm (herbal medicine) of that country to their merchan- 
dise. About two hundred years after this, the Midianites, having 
recovered their numbers and strength, were peTmitted by God to 
distress the Israelites, for the space of seven years, (length of 
Roosevelt term) as a punishment for their relapse into idolatry. 
But at length their armies, which had encamped in the valley of 
Jezreel, were miraculously defeated by Gideon. — Judges, 6-8." 
This is typified in Rev. -20, 7-8-9. Pethor is a city in upper 
Mesopotamie, in which it is claimed was the Garden of Eden, 
and of which Balaam was a native, and stands for a symbol 
of St. Paul, Minn., "which is by the river (Mississippi) of the 
land of the children of his people." Egypt, stands for the 



149 

Papacy. The elders of Moab, stand for close friends of Roose- 
velt, and the elders of Midian, stand for ''regular" doctors, or 
men interested in schools teaching "regular" medicine, or parties 
in their interest. I then read this chapter. 

The Republicans ''pitched " or settled down in control of the 
Federal Government, after the civil war (chap. 21) by Jericho, 
whose walls (Baltimore) are not far from Washington. And 
Roosevelt saw what the North and South had suffered in the 
civil war, which was brought on by Papal intrigue, and the Re- 
publicans were afraid of the Papacy and the Patriots were be- 
tween two fires. And the Roosevelt schemers the " regular " 
doctors, or their brother in the priesthood; the influential 
men of the Papacy saidj the Homoeopaths, Osteopaths, and 
Christian Scientists, are hurting the business, and getting 
the patients we used to get at our hospitals, and it is hard for 
us to hold them down in the several states, and they threaten 
to lick us up like "the ox licketh up the grass of the field." 
And Roosevelt was king of the Moabites (Republicans) at that 
time. Roosevelt sent messengers to Ireland, son of the Papacy 
at St. Paul, saying there is a people, practicing healing, which is 
not "regular," who do not practice medicine in Egypt, (the 
Papacy) but are what we call " quacks," and they are growing 
in numbers and we must get rid of them. Come now go into this 
National Health Department scheme. We want State medicine. 
If I can get you into this scheme, we can force the other systems 
of healing out. And the Roosevelt schemers, and the "regular" 
doctors' representatives, " departed with the rewards of divination 
(what a fortune teller told them) in their hands. And they told 
Archbishop Ireland what Roosevelt said. And he (Ireland) said 
stay all night, and let me think it over. And God came to John 
Ireland and said what is this scheme these fellows want you to 
go into; and then Ireland turned it over in his mind, and his 
conscience told him that it was a conspiracy against civil and 
religious liberty, and he would not go into it, and he told the 
Roosevelt gentlemen he was not with them in this enter- 
prise. And they went and told Roosevelt. And Roosevelt 
sent again some bigger men, and they told Ireland if he would 
go into it, "I will promote thee unto very great honour, 
and I will do whatsoever thou sayest unto me:" come 
unto me and help curse this irregular medicine. And Ireland 
asked them to stay all night. And God told Ireland if they press 
you, "rise up and go with them ; but yet the word which I shall 
say unto thee, that shalt thou do." And Balaam went with them. 
And God's anger was kindled, because he went." Ireland was 
overpersuaded in his own mind, and charged it up to the Lord, 



150 

and as he rode along with his two companions, " servants " or 
men of less rank in the Papacy than he, and Ireland's thoughts 
begun to bother him and he begun to need some reasons for 
special legislation for a system of medicine which should recom- 
mend itself, and Ireland I judge did his part of the conversation 
with the asses. 

Now the ass that he saddled and rode on this occasion was 
a "regular" doctor. And the doctor saw the avenging angel 
of the Lord; the angel of death, the curse of tuberculosis, and 
spread of disease from their system of medicine. And the Papal 
doctor wanted Federal legislation which would give the Papal 
doctors power, to gradually change their system, absorb the 
other systems. If they could not do this, their system was 
killing and would kill itself, in its results of tuberculosis and 
other diseases promoted. 

And Ireland ''smote the ass to turn her into the (right) way." 
''But the angel of the Lord stood in a path of (to) the 
vineyards; a wall being on this side and on that" (Congress). 
To turn into the right way, without control of the Government 
vineyards, would discredit and disrupt them. And the ass told 
Ireland that they were controlled by the Church and had to 
practice its system and that is where Ireland's foot was "crushed 
against the wall." "And the angel of the Lord went further, 
and stood in a narrow place, there was no way to turn either to 
the right hand or to the left." "And when (the matter narrowed 
down) the ass saw the angel of the Lord, she fell down (in con- 
fession) under Balaam: and Balaam's anger was kindled, Siud he 
smote the ass with a staff (this was news to Ireland, and his 
staff indicates official indignation). "And the Lord opened the 
mouth of the ass, and she said unto Balaam, What have I done 
unto thee, that thou hast smitten me these three times? (I have 
always been your ass; through me you have your political power 
in all state institutions, and through me you get a vast 
amount in appropriations). And Balaam (Ireland) said unto 
the ass (doctor), Because thou hast mocked me (made me partly 
chargeable in this traffic in disease and death); I would there 
were a sword in mine hand, for now would I kill thee (profes- 
sionally). And the ass said unto Balaam, Am not I thine ass, 
upon which thpu hast ridden (into power and appropriations) 
ever since I WAS (from my beginning) thine unto this day? 
was I ever ivont (ever before) to do so (throw it up) unto thee 
(the Church)? (Have I not known this condition for years, and 
knowing it betrayed this innocent blood into your political 
power, and their public funds to you?) And he said, Nay (I 
never knew you to charge it to the Church before). 



151 

Then the Lord opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw 
the angel of the Lord standing in the way, and his sword 
drawn (the curse of these doctor plagues) in his hand: 
and he bowed down his head, and fell flat on his face. 
And the angel of the Lord said unto him. Wherefore hast 
thou smitten thine ass these three times? behold,! went out to 
withstand thee (Papacy), because thy way is perverse before me 
(your church is to blame for all this suffering and sacrifice, to its 
ambition for power and money): And the ass saw me, (with the 
sword of death) and turned from me (sought reform) these three 
times: (but you would not reform the practice, and save this 
slaughter, unless you got a place in the Cabinet, through which 
you could control all healing, and attain much greater political 
power) unless she (the ass) had turned from me, (showing she is 
not wilful in the matter but you are) surely now also I had 
slain thee, and saved her alive (that is, I would save the ass 
alive if I could, but because she is a part of your priesthood, 
and I call this ass she because it is part of a religion: and ass 
further, because it is a system of poisoning imposed on them 
which many of them would like to throw off, I must kill the ass, 
to reach you, the most guilty). And Balaam (Ireland) said unto 
the angel of the Lord, I have sinned; for I knew not that thou 
stoodest in the way against me: now therefore, if it displease 
thee, I will get me back again. And the angel of the Lord said 
unto Balaam, Go with the men: but only the word that I shall 
speak unto thee, that thou shalt speak. So Balaam went with 
the princes of Balak (Roosevelt). 

''And when Balak heard that Balaam was come, he went out 
to meet him unto a city of Moab, (New York) which is in the 
border of Arnon, which is in the utmost coast. And Balak said 
unto Balaam, Did /not earnestly send unto thee to call thee? 
wherefore camest thou not unto me? am I not able indeed to 
promote thee to honour? And Balaam said unto Balak, Lo, I 
am come unto thee: have I now any power at all to say any- 
thing? the word that God putteth in my mouth, that shall I 
speak. 

!'And Balaam went with Balak, and they came unto Kirjath — 
huzoth (Washington). And Balak offered oxen and sheep, £ind 
sent to Balaam, and to the princes (government officers) that were 
with him. And it came to pass on the morrow, that Balak took 
Balaam, and brought him up into the high places of Baal, that 
thence he might see the utm.ost part of the people." 

Baal was ''the fundamental idea of all oriental idolatry," and 
signified, "governor, ruler, lord." The idea, " is the primeval 
power of nature, which divides itself into the generative and the 



152 

conceptive or productive power," and it would be difficult to more 
concisely and comprehensively, describe the present germ theory 
of disease, which the Pope forces on us/'Baal is the most ancient 
god of the Canaanites, and, perhaps of the east; and the Hebrews 
too often imitated the idolatry of the Canaanites, in adoring him. 
They offered human sacrifices to him, and erected altars to him 
(hospitals) in groves, (states, cities, and towns) on high places, 
(Federal. Providence Hospital for one. Marine Hospital Service, 
and Government schools in ''regular" medicine), and on the ter- 
races of houses (the very method of out-door sleeping now rec- 
ommended by the "regular" profession, to fight tuberculosis). 
Baal had priests and prophets consecrated to his service; and 
many infamous actions were committed in his festivals." Baal 
is pictured with horns, as we picture the devil today, and just 
below the horns we find ears, which look so much like cow's 
ears that they readily suggest vaccination, as apart and parcel of 
the devil. The face is otherwise of human appearance, clean 
shaven, avoiding microbial infection, and the cast of countenance 
is scientific, bordering upon the legislative and judicial. They 
already have the executive. . . . this of course is Mr. Wiley. 
And Balak Roosevelt, put Balaam Ireland on the Committee of 
One Hundred on National Health. 

To satisfy my ''regular" brethren that I use the term ass in 
no lack of charity, which 1 find is a scriptural synonym for 
truth, and that what we call charity, the Lord calls alms, and 
what we call tolerance, is what he calls treason, now the tribe of 
Manasseh ("forgetfulness") was divided in the land of promise, 
and king Manasseh is a strong suggestion of Roosevelt. Ma- 
nasseh, was the eldest son of Joseph. When Jacob was going 
to die Joseph brought his tv/o sons to him that his father might 
give them his last blessing, Jacob adopted them, though the 
birthright was given to Ephraim. "One-half of the tribe of 
Manasseh possessed the country BETWEEN the tribe of Ephraim 
to whom came the birthright from Jacob, and the tribe of 
Issachar.'' "Issachar was the fifth son of Jacob and Leah. 
Jacob in blessing him, said, 'Issachar is a strong ass couching 
doion betiveen two burdens. And he saw that rest teas good, 
and the land that it was pleasant, and bowed his shoulder to 
bear, and become a servant unto tribute. The Chaldee trans- 
lates it in a quite contrary sense; (and when you know that 
Chaldea is but another name for Babylonia, our symbol, and 
that this country was also known as Shinar, we may see the 
difference between Jacob's intention and the present condition; 
the Chaldea-Pope-Babylonian says; "He shall subdue provinces, 
and make those tributary to him, who shall remain in his land/' 



153 

That is just the logical, political scope and end of this National 
Health Department scheme, urged by the Papacy, sometimes 
known in the Bible as Babylon. The tribe of Manasseh when 
under king Manasseh, were reflected in their king, a good picture 
of Roosevelt. ''Manasseh adored Baal, planted groves, and 
worshipped all the host of heaven; Manasseh placed in the 
two courts of the temple (Capitol) at Jerusalem, altars to all 
the host of heaven, and, in particular, to Astarte, (Queen of 
heaven) or the moon. 2 Kings, 21-5, 7. Jeremiah threatens 
those of Judah, who had sacrificed to Baal on the house top, 
(32-29) and Josiah (McKinley) destroyed the altars which Ahaz 
had erected on the terrace of his palace, (administration). 
2 Kings, 32-12. 

Read, then, symbolically, Manasseh (the Papacy) lies between 
the ass and his inheritance, and our inheritance. God was the 
physician in the economy of Old Israel, and the idea has never 
been changed. As in the old economy we have a right to be- 
lieve in the new economy, the practice of medicine, or the art 
of healing, will become a part of the function of the State, even 
as Christ the symbol embodied both the Kingly and healing at- 
tributes as his. The trouble with the scheme the "regular," is 
trying to put through is, he is hitched up with Antichrist in- 
stead of with Christ the great Physician. For the "regular" 
doctor's perverseness, he suffers, and by Almighty power, sci- 
ence is paralyzed, apostasy is punished, earthly wisdom is fool- 
ishness, earthly effort without repentance, is hope deferred, and 
in the shadow of the wing of death we read one word, treason. 
"The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from 
between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the 
gathering of the people he. Binding his foal unto the vine 
(the government), and his (Judah's) ass's colt unto the choice 
vine; he washed (purified) his garments in wine, and his clothes 
in the blood of grapes (Papacy-fruit of the vine); His (ass's colt) 
eyes shall be red (Cardinal Papal red) with wine, and his teeth 
(wherewith he bit us) white with milk. Judah is a lion's whelp 
(we are the British lion's). 

The Puritans and Washington had read this prophetic bless- 
ing of Jacob, had noticed some of the early earmarks of the 
inheritance, and laid the foundation accordingly. That is what 
I call advanced thought. After this experience, no one will ob- 
ject to state medicine, where there will be no object of gain or 
power, to any interest, and we will not have to suffer and die to 
satisfy the cupidity of anybody. "Benjamin shall ravin as a 
wolf; (the ravin or raven, was a well known bird of prey unclean 
by the law, and its blackness is proverbial) in the morning (of 



154 

millenium) he shall devour the prey, (Papacy) and at night he 
shall divide the spoil. All these are the twelve tribes of Israel; 
and this it is that their father spake unto them, and blessed 
them; every one according to his blessing he blessed them." 
And he charged them, and said unto them, I am to be gathered 
unto my (a prophet's) people; bury me with my fathers in the 
cave that is in the field of Ephron (signifying "of or belonging 
to a calf" golden calf), the Hitite" (descendants of Heth). 

The use of the word cave here can have two symbolic mean- 
ings. The caves of Judea, were used by robbers, and the lep- 
rous, and were also used for sepulture. This being Jacob's- 
prophetic blessing, we may assume that Jacob foreseeing this 
time and these circumstances, sought to convey to those who in 
the ages remote, looking for sign of his inheritance, the symbol 
from him, suited to the conjunction of historical circumstance. 
This is heightened by the fact that caves were common places 
of burial, where the mortal is laid away, to be met again only in im- 
mortality. What then, if we be face to face with immortality 
in the United States, as the inheritance of Jacob, and the foot- 
stool of the ''new heaven and new earth?" Jacob was called 
Israel, and buried in a cave with hope of resurrection, like unta 
his glorious body, became a symbol of Jesus Christ resurrected 
from a cave, to find echo in the chosen people ''dead in tres- 
passes and sins," resurrected. Yet he specifies further: "In 
the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, (signifying "a doub- 
ling,") which is before Mamre, (signifying "fatness," and Old 
Israel is barren) in the land of Canaan, (promised to Abraham^ 
and the wickedness of Canaan much after ours, suggests ours) 
which Abraham bought with the field (in exchange) of Ephron ("of 
or belonging to a calf," double symbol again we were calves to 
break a covenant, giving Abraham this chance, knowing his 
propensity, and Roosevelt delivered us to the "golden calf," of 
Papacy) the Hitite for a possession of a burying place." Jacob 
very shrewdly omits to say who is to be buried in this cave, and 
I conclude, it to be the calf and the man, Uncle Sam, who broke 
his covenant, and lost his property. There they buried Abraham 
and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his 
wife; and there /buried Leah." This cave is described follow- 
ing. To still more specifically identify us, Jacob adds: "The 
purchase of the field and of the cave that is therein was from 
the children of Heth." 

Now title by descent. "And Canaan begat ;S^c?on his first bom,' 
and Heth."— Gen., 10-15. 

Well, I am not a lawyer, but after reading the very particular 
circumstances of this purchase by the father of the chosen 



155 

people, as Moses gives it to us in Gen., 23d, it looks to me that 
Abraham secured the very strongest kind of a title over here. 

It seems Abraham "stood up from before his dead," and told 
the sons of Heth that he was a "stranger and a sojourner with 
you; give me a possession of a burying-place with ^/ow, that I 
may bury my dead out of my sight/' And the children of Heth 
answered: "Hear us, my Lord; thou art a mighty prince amongst 
us; in the choice of our sepulchres bury thy dead; none of us shall 
withhold from thee his sepulchre, but that thou mayest bury 
thy dead. And Abraham stood up and bowed himself to the 
people of the land, even to the children of Heth. And he 
communed (not bargained) with them, (for they gave him as a 
mighty prince the choice of sepulchres without price, and he 
publicly bowed his acceptance. It seems he first took up the 
matter with the sons of Heth for a place to bury his dead, and 
then the children of Heth took it up as a patriotic matter, and 
as a popular demonstration offered him his choice), "none of us 
shall withhold from thee our sepulchre, that thou mayest bury 
thy dead, and he bowed his acknowledgment and acceptance to 
the people of the land, even to the children of Heth." This 
transaction being closed, he "communed with them, saying, If 
it be your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight; 
hear me, and intreat for me to the son of Zohar ("light")." 

It appears further along that the cave of Ephron the Hitite, 
was publicly at the proper place proclaimed a gift to Abraham, 
which Abraham again publicly acknowledged to the people of 
the land. 

Finally for "four hundred shekels of silver, current money 
with the merchant," Abraham buys "the field of Ephron which 
was in Machpelah, (a doubling) which was before Mamre, (fatness) 
the field, and the cave which was therein, and all the trees that 
were in the field, that were in all the borders round about, were 
made sure." This money appears to have been paid to Ephron, 
the son of Zohar, ("light,") "in the audience (presence) of the 
sons of Heth." 

He bought then "the cave of Machpelah, (a doubling) which 
he hath, which is in the end of his field; (possession) forasmuch 
money as it is worth he shall give it me for a possession of a 
burying place amongst you." 

It turns out, then, he really purchased for "current money" a 
future, or an option, on a "doubling" or choice of the field 
which was before "fatness." 

Now to further identify, it is recited "And after fAzs Abraham 
buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah 



156 

before Mamre; the same (in the doubling) is Hebron (or "alli- 
ance" or dedication in the Declaration of Independence) in the 
land of Canaan." The land of promise. This purchased the 
birthright of the heirs of the eldest son of Canaan, who was 
cursed, and so could not come in under the head of the chosen 
in a general way. 

As to the balance then of heirs, the title runs in the king 
Jesus Christ, or his designation.. Then comes the dedication in 
the Declaration of Independence or the ''alliance," which we 
have broken. 

''And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to 
embalm his father; and the physicians embalmed Israel.'' 

We come now to one of the most impressive, and suggestive 
symbols in the Scriptures, and one of the most curious facts, in 
3600 years of Jewish history. Finding in the Scriptures no other 
case of the embalming of orthodox Jews after the Egyptian 
method, I do find Jacob and Joseph embalmed; the men through 
whom the inheritance is to converge in the priestly and kingly 
office. Embalming, was the visible evidence, of the very essence 
of the religion of the Egyptians, and repugnant to every 
teaching and belief of the Jew. This was an act of unbelief in 
the doctrine taught by the Jews, which, unless done as a direct 
command of God, for the purposes of prophetic illumination, 
can find no justification upon any ground. Unless for a prophetic 
purpose, it voids the covenant made with Israel. 

The spiritual essence of embalming is that the soul does not 
leave the body, until the body decay, and might be detained in 
a state of consciousness while that change could be averted. "It 
is generally supposed, however, that the form under which the 
Egyptians believed in a state after death, was that of the trans- 
migration of Souls! The Egyptians are the first who declared 
this doctrine also, that the soul of man is immortal, and that 
when the body decays the soul enters into another animal suc- 
cessively at its birth; and when it has gone round all the ter- 
restrial and marine animals, and all the flying creatures, it enters 
again into the body of a man at its birth; and this circuit of 
the soul is performed in 3,000 years." 

"In the tomb of Rameses the Sixth, in Bab-el-Melook, the 
usual judgment scene is represented, with the addition of a 
hari preceded by a Cynocephalus, on which is the figure of a 
sow. Behind the sow is another Cynocephalus, an emblem of 
Thoth or Mercury Psyco Pompus, who appears to be driving 
her on. This has been generally admitted to be a representation 
of the return of a wicked soul to the upper world, condemned 



157 

by Osiris for its sin to migrate into the body of a swine. Cham- 
pollion, following out this idea, reads the characters which 
stand above the sow 'gluttony,' which he supposed to be the 
vice for which the soul had been condemned to this penance." 
The suffering of the unclean spirits to enter the swine, in the 
lessons of our Savior, was not only to show the destructiveness 
of the doctrine that a man's immortal soul could enter a lower 
organization and that organization survive, but to show that 
God's decrees are immutable; that the soul that sinneth shall 
surely die, carrying everything which it influences, to a swift 
and sure destruction. While it teaches that, it as surely teaches 
the immutability of the promise of an inheritance. Now if a 
soul may be given in the form of a man and find destruction in 
the form of a hog, so a promise may be given to a chosen peo- 
ple, and be amply redeemed to that people, included within 
another people. What, then, is the prophetic significance of this 
embalmment of Israel and Joseph purged of the soul-defiling 
feature? The essentials for embalming and preserving the dead 
body were all herbal. '1 hat being demonstrated true in the 
preservation of a dead body, where are you going to get a 
stronger logical, scientific argument than herbal balm and 
aromatic plants for the preservation of the living body? Where 
then are you to get a stronger scientific argument outside of 
scripture, against mineral medicine and invaccination? 

]f transmigration took 3000 years from man to man, 
and as to Israel it was mummified, then we must look for it 
in approximately 3000 years in a chosen people animate. 
From Israel and Joseph, B. C. 1689 down through the apos- 
tasy of the Jews, into the new covenant of the New Testament, 
on through the apostasy of the so-called church, builded upon 
the ministry of Jesus Christ, we strike the bloody trail of the 
Popes, in which Jew and Paulician are made a common enemy, 
and in the Council of Lateran in 1215, 2900 years from Jacob 
and Joseph, we meet face to face the doctrine of the combina- 
tion of Papacy and secular princes, to "extirpate heretics," 
and seize the priceless inheritance of civil and religious lib- 
erty wrapped in prophetic wisdom, in the mummy clothes of 
Israel. God Almighty saw his chosen, of Israel, and His own 
dear Son, hunted like wnld beasts, and crucified after a science 
which shamed the other pagans, and his fingers commenced 
the unwrapping of the mummy clothes of Israel. Magna 
Charta, in the same year as the Lateran Council, is the reply 
of the soul of Israel. 

We come along down to the period between 1190 and 1241, 



158 

and ^' Henry had made himself master of nearly all Cam- 
pania, Calabria, and Apulia; and at length achieved in an- 
other expedition, the conquest of the kingdoms of Sicily and 
Naples. His eifortsto render the imperial dignity hereditary, 
had so far succeeded, as to procure a decree, by which his son, 
Frederic II. was, on his death, made king of the Romans, 
and heir to the empire. 

Frederic being a minor, his uncle, Philip, duke of Swabia, 
became regent. 

The sultan of Egypt had reduced the Christians of the east 
to great distress, and their only hope was in the aid of their 
brethren of the west. 

To engage Frederic in their cause, the Pope gave him in 
marriage Yolande, the daughter of John of Brienne, titular 
king of Jerusalem, ivith that kingdom as her doiver. Still 
Frederic manifested a reluctance to depart, until the patience 
of the pope was exhausted, and he pronounced his ex- 
communication. The emperor now renewed the war of 
the Guelphs and Ghibellines. He invaded Italy, compelled 
the Pope to flee from Eome, and ravaged his possessions. 

Frederic at length proceeded to perform his vow; but de- 
parted for the holy land without the sentence of excommuni- 
cation having been revoked. His crusade was more success- 
ful than that of either of the preceding monarchs. The sultan 
of Egypt ceded to him Jerusalem, with several other cities. 
A truce of ten years was concluded. Gregory IX. would not 
allow any ecclesiastics to assist in crowning Frederic king of 
Jerusalem^ but he took the crown from the altar, and with 
his own hands placed it on his head. The Pope instigated his 
subjects in Italy to revolt, and for several years, Germany and 
Italy were deluged with blood. A succession of Popes de- 
clared Frederic excommunicated and dethroned, and new 
emperors elected. Still he maintained his cause until 
death relieved the Popes from a fearless and formidable 
enemy. But the troubles of the empire increased. Tumult 
and confusion prevailed. All classes were in arms; several 
emperors were elected, but none properly acknoivledged, until 
Kodolph of Hapsburg, a prince of the ancient family of the 
Guelphs, and possessing considerable territories in Switzer- 
land, ivas raised to the throne. From him sprang the House 
of Austria. While Germany was in this state of disorder, 
Denmark, Holland, and Hungary threw off their allegiance to 
the empire. They were called the Hanse towns, and the confed- 
eration the Hanseatic League. Eodolph took arms against 
Ottocarus, king of Bohemia, who had seized the duchy of 



159 

Austria ; defeated and slew him in battle. Austria was given 
to Albert, the eldest son of Rodolph. 

The reign of Rodolph was prospreous and popular. The 
electors at his death, rejecting Albert, chose Adolphus of Nas- 
sau; but he was eventually deposed when Albert obtained 
the sovereignty. The Swiss Cantons of Uri, Schwitz and 
Underwald, although free and independent in their internal 
government, had been obliged to acknowledge the supremacy 
of the empire, under the administration of Rodolph, who, 
however, treated them with great leniency. Albert, indignant 
.at the spirit of freedom (Jacob's spirit) which they had oc- 
casionally expressed, sent bailiffs, with orders to tame these 
mountaineers (mountains of Israel), and bring them to sub- 
jection. Gresler, one of these officers, had erected in the 
market place, a pole on which he placed his hat, commanding 
the passers by to pay it obeisance. William Tell refused to 
yield the homage. He was sentenced to death, but his sen- 
tence was exchanged into a command to shoot an apple from 
the head of his son ; and if his arrow failed, both he and his 
son were to be executed. Little despised Switzerland fur- 
nished in William Tell, the faith of Abraham, tested in the otf er- 
ing of Isaac, the Divine arrow piercing the forbidden 
fruit. ' ' Jacob, in 1308, twenty-nine hundred and ninety-seven 
years, after tlie physicians of Egypt had bound him in 
mummery; with three years to spare, rose, and reading to 
the earth that sublime thirty-second chapter of Deuteronomy 
the Song of Moses, announced to the waiting earth, that he 
lived again. Switzerland, kept as the apple of his eye, the 
herald of freedom, the asylum for the chosen, Switzerland 
had fought her Thermopylae two hundred years before Doctor 
I.uther put his Holyness on his ^'Diet of Worms," John Huss 
was the Jacob of Prague, summoned to the Papal Council of 
Constance, was condemned for heresy; a mitre with three dev- 
ils painted upon it was put upon his head, he was committed to 
the flames, and again Israel spoke. Next the Pope baptises 
France in blood, and today France stands up, and talks to 
Papacy, with the voice of Jacob, and writes the bloody name 
de Montfort, below that of Metternicht. 

In the meantime John Wickliffe had consecrated Eno'land, 
-and the smoke from his exhumed bones, went up an incense to 
eternal truth. 

In a little more than a decade before Columbus landed on 
our shores, Spain had given us the Inquisition and the army 
tiospital, and this is called the dawn of modem civilization. 

Wickliife and John Kjiox spoke to Britain, and Jacob 



160 

boarded the Mayflower, crossed the deep, and on the stone 
which pillowed his head in his wonderful ladder dream, he 
laielt, and dedicating his inheritance to the God of Abraham, 
and of Isaac, and of Jacob, he strode into the wilderness, to 
meet his vision in the Declaration of American Independence. 
(Gen. 28). 

"And the Lord pnt a word in Balaam's (Ireland's) mouth, 
and said, Eeturn unto Balak, (Eoosevelt) and thus thou shalt 
speak. And he took up his parable, and said, Balak the king 
of Moab hath brought me from Aram, (Xew York) out of the 
mountains of the east, saying. Gome, curse me (for me) Jacob, 
and come, defy Israel, How shall I curse, whom God hath 
not cursed! or how shall I defy, whom the Lord hath not 
defied I For from the top of the rocks I see him, and from the 
hills I behold him: lo, the people shall dwell alone (they are 
the chosen), and shall not be reckoned among the nations. 
Who can count the dust (population) of Jacob, and the num- 
ber of the fourth part (Papal part) of Israel! Let me 
die the death of the righteous (patriotic), and let my last end 
be like his! (McKinley's). And Balak said unto Balaam, 
What has thou done unto me? I took thee to curse (work 
against) mine enemies, and behold, thou hast blessed them 
altogether. And he answered and said. Must I not take heed 
to speak that which the Lord hath put in my mouth! And 
Balak said unto him. Come, I pray thee, with me unto another 
place, from whence thou mayest see them: thou shalt see but 
the utmost part of them, and shalt not see them all (no sud- 
den action, insidious) : and curse me them from thence. And 
he brought him into the field of Zophim (Sophar king of the 
Nomades, a diviner), to the top of Pisgah (here Moses climbed 
to view the promised land and here he died), and built 
seven altars, and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar. 
And he said unto Balak, Stand here by thy burnt offering, 
while / meet the Lord yonder. And the Lord met Balaam 
(Ireland), and put a word in his mouth, and said, Go again 
unto Balak, and say thus. And when he came to him, behold, 
he stood by his burnt offering, and the princes of Moab with 
him. 

And Balak said unto him, What hath the Lord spoken! 
And he took up his parable and said. Rise up, Balak, and hear ; 
hearken unto me, thou son of Zippor: God is not man, that 
he should lie; neither the Son of man, that he should -repent: 
hath he said, and shall he not do it! or hath he spoken, and 
shall he not make it good! Behold I have received com- 



161 

mandment to bless (aid): and he hath blessed; and / can- 
not reverse it. He hath not beheld iniquity in Jacob, neither 
hath he seen perverseness in Israel: the Lord his God is 
with him, and the shout of a king is among them. God 
brought them out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength 
of an unicorn. Surely there is no enchantment against 
Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel : ac- 
cording to this time (struggle between Jacob and Papacy) it 
shall be said of Jacob and of Israel, what hath God wrought! '* 

The next chapter, the 25tli chapter of Numbers, which 
should chronologically precede the one just analyzed, and this 
arrangement may be by design, to my mind relates the as- 
sassination of McKinley, and the circumstances leading up to 
the same. ^'And Israel abode in Shittim (a wood abundant 
in Egypt and standing for the Papacy), and the people began 
to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab (Republi- 
can party). And they called the people (voters) unto the 
sacrifices of their gods (presidential election) : and the peo- 
ple did eat, and bowed down to their gods (had an election). 
And Israel joined himself unto Baal-peor (got the Catholic 
vote) : and the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel. 
And the Lord said unto Moses (McKinley) take all the 
heads of the people, and hang them up before the Lord against 
the sun (weed out Papacy), that the fierce anger of the Lord 
may be turned away from Israel. 

And Moses (McKinley) said unto the judges of Israel (Sen- 
ate Doc. No. 190, 56th Cong; 2nd Session, p. 2), Slay ye every 
one his men that were joined unto Baal-peor. And, behold, 
one of the children of Israel (a politician) came and brought 
unto his brethren a Midianitish woman (Papal ecclesiastic) 
in the sight of Moses (McKinley) and in the sight of all the 
congregation of the children of Israel, who were weeping 
before the door of the tabernacle (Executive office) of the 
congregation." Here congregation stands for the field of 
voters. The Republicans were ^'weeping" because Cleveland, 
or the Democrats were in the '^tabernacle" or Executive of- 
fice, and the Democrats were '' weeping" over the crime of 
73. And when Phinehas (McKinley) the son of Eleazer, the 
son of Aaron the priest, saw (knew) it, (the political bargain 
or promise) he rose up from among the congregation, and 
took a javelin in his hand. (Phinehas is particularly com- 
mended in Scripture for zeal in vindicating the glory of God, 
when the Midianites had sent their daughters into the camp 
of Israel, to tempt the Hebrews to fornication and idolatry. 

1988—11 



162 

For his conduct on this occasion the Lord promised the priest- 
hood to Phinehas (his like) by a perpetual covenant; evidently 
including this tacit condition, that his children should con- 
tinue faithful and obedient. Calmet.) And he we^it after the 
man of Israel (who had without his consent traded patron- 
age for votes) into the tent, and thrust both of them 
through (declined to be held), the man of Israel, and the 
woman (religious-Papal symbol) through het^ belly, (where 
she is fed with patronage). So the plague (tuberculosis and 
other plagues) was stayed from the children of Israel. And 
those that died in the (political) plague (as a result) were 
twenty and four thousand. And the Lord spake unto Moses, 
saying, Phinehas (McKinley), the son of Eleazer, the son of 
Aaron the priest, hath turned my wrath away from the chil- 
dren of Israel, while he was zealous for my sake among them, 
that I consumed (consumption) not the children of Israel in 
my jealousy. Wherefore say, Behold, I give unto him my 
covenant of peace: And he shall have it, and his seed (suc- 
cessors) after him, even the covenant of an everlasting priest- 
hood; because he was zealous for his God, and made an 
atonement for the children of Israel. Now the name of 
the Israelite that was slain, even that was slain with the 
Midianitish woman (Papacy), was Zimri, the son of Salu, a 
prince of a chief house among the Simeonites.'' (Simon- 
Peter-ites.) "Zimri (was) a general of half the cavalry of 
Elah, King of Israel, when he rebelled against his master, 
MUed him, and usurped his kingdom. Although he reigned 
but seven days (seven prophetic years), he cut off 
the whole family of Elah, not sparing any of his 
relations or friends." "And the name of the Midianitish 
woman that was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur: 
He was head over a people, and of a chief house in Midian.^^ 

"And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying. Vex the Midian- 
ites (Papists), and smite them: For they vex you with their 
wiles ("the wiles of foreign influence." Washington-Madi- 
son-Lincoln) wherewith they have beguiled you in the matter 
of Peor (idolatry), and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter 
of a prince of Midian, their sister, which was slain in the day 
of the plague for Peer's (idolatry's) sake." 

The next Chapter, is the taking of the census, which we are 
about engaging in. 

When "opened he (Christ) their understanding, that they 
might understand the scriptures,'' it is more than probable 
that he told Peter and his fellow apostles, that the church 
about to be established by them, would fall into corruption, 



163 

and that it would come to be dominated by one, claiming to 
be in such iniquity the sole representative of Christ upon 
earth, and the Savior a second time come. That he would 
try to extirpate the church by them planted, and failing to 
extirpate the chosen people, would finally by . "insidious 
wiles," and duplicity, all but overcome them. For John in 
the 21st Chapter, and 20th verse says: ''Then Peter, turning 
about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following; which 
also leaned on his breast at the supper, and said Lord, which 
is he that betray eih thee? Peter seeing Jiiyji saith to Jesus, 
Lord, and what shall this man dof Jesus saith unto him. 
If I will that he tarry till / come, what is that to thee? Fol- 
low thou me," 

That Peter then determined that such reproach should 
never attach to his name, may be logically inferred ; not alone 
from his Pentecostal sermon, but his whole subsequent life. 
We may even conclude, that Peter's three eventful years of 
rebuke while constantly under the Master's eye, served as a 
lash to that zealous work which afterward characterized him. 
His whole utterance related in the Acts of the Apostles, 
form a striking contrast and a burning rebuke to the church 
which has appropriated his name. 

Peter in the 3rd Chapter of the Acts, verifies the prophecies 
of the Old Testament to us, regarding his church, and this 
country. Peter's very rebuke to Ananias (an-a-nigh-ass) and 
Sapphira (Sappho), is a Papal rebuke, and a prophetic pho- 
tograph of their end, by the man they slander. 

In Peter's epistles, the very first verse is significant, as it 
is addressed to the ''strangers scattered throughout Pontus, 
Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia." Why should Peter 
in his first epistle, address it to the ** strangers," in pro- 
vinces, in which it cannot be shown he ever preached, or they 
had any means of knowing anything of him personally, and 
with whom he could have no standing? It has a signifi- 
cance for this day and time. 

At Bith^Tiia, was held the Council of Nice, convened by Con- 
stantine the Great, under whose reign the Church and State 
came in adulterous relation, and started the Church in her 
great carnival of corruption, and blood. It is also an interest- 
ing fact, that there was another Constantino ; an humble man, 
and called also Silvanus, who became a martyr in the seventh 
century to the gospel of Jesus Christ. This venerable preacher 
of righteousness, after twenty-seven years of evangelical effort 
spread the Paulician doctrine throughout the very provinces 
to which Peter first addressed himself, though a ''stranger." 



164 

This humble Constantine founded the sect of Paulicians ; pre- 
served to and through the English Puritan Pilgrims, to find 
in Plymouth Rock, the threshold of the hope of mankind. 
Thus the great Peter addresses himself first in loving words 
to the Puritans, denominated by the church which misrepre- 
sents him, as heretics. This first epistle is a luminous expo- 
sition of Paulist, or Puritan doctrine. But the stupefying 
and confounding portion of this epistle is that of the last 
verses, saying some 600 years before the birth of Silvanus, 
the founder of the Paulician-Puritans : ^'By Silvanus, a 
faithful brother unto you, as I suppose, I have written 
briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace 
of God wherein ye stand. ' ' 

No less astounding is the fact that this letter is assumed to 
be written from Babylon, of which there is no evidence of 
Peter's ever having been there. Babylon, however, is a sym- 
bol of the United States, and then this verse would read: 
^^The (true) church thai is at Babylon, (the United States) 
elected (by God) together with you (Paulician-Puri- 
tans), saluteth you; and so doth Marcus (Congress) my 
son." There was a church at Bithynia, at the time of Sil- 
vanus, by whom this message is sent, which today claims apos- 
tolic descent from Peter, and hence this is a direct and distinct 
repudiation of the claim of the Papacy, by Peter himself. 
Also Mark, converted to Christianity through Peter himself 
some 600 years before Silvanus ' birth, is joined in this greeting. 
Mark, the evangelist, martyred in Egypt. This epistle is fit- 
tingly closed with, ^^ Greet ye one another with a kiss of char- 
ity. Peace he with you all that are in Christ Jesus. Amen.'' 

That this was the field of Paul's preaching is shown in 
Acts 19, and it takes peculiar point and pith, when it is shown 
in this chapter that at that time Demetrius and his fellow idol 
makers were fighting Paul, as the Papacy is now fighting the 
Puritan idea. It is also of some consequence that in this ter- 
ritory the second Nicene Papal Council established image 
worship. Some commentators have undertaken to say that 
Peter's reference to Silvanus means Silas, but this is only 
true in the Latin, and not in the Hebrew or Greek; and at 
that time Peter had not yet been Latinized. Peter, in the very 
spelling of Silvanus, instead of Sylvanus, seems to have 
sought to emphasize the distinction. 

Having shown that Peter asked of Jesus, after his cruci- 
fixion, concerning the second betrayal. And what shall this 
man do? there is a very strong suggestion in the 1st Chapter 
of Acts, being between the Ascension and Pentecost. Peter, in 



^ 



165 

this very next chapter after asking Christ, "And what shall 
this man do!" in that very narrow limit of time, stands before 
the infant church committed to the earthly shepherds; relat- 
ing the reason for the first betrayal of Christ, he pictured the 
apostasy of that early church, the rise of the Papacy, its blas- 
phemous betrayal, its corrupt and bloody record, the destruc- 
tion of the system, and the transferal of his ministry purified, 
to another. The history of Judas Iscariot, written in the 
few days between betrayal and retribution, Peter, whose name 
destined to be trafficked in for centuries of the future, pro- 
jected the career as follows: "Men and brethren, this scrip- 
ture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by 
the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas, which 
was guide to them that took Jesus. For he ivas numbered 
with us, and had obtained part of this ministry. Now 
this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity ; and 
falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst (midst of 
wh at ? ) and all his bowels gushed out. " (It will be remembered 
that the former Judas Iscariot the man did not purchase a 
field of blood, but he returned his blood money, and the chief 
priests and Elders purchased a potter's field, and today 
through their business investments in hospitals and homes 
they typify the field of blood. ^'And it was known unto all the 
dwellers at Jerusalem ; insomuch as that field is called in their 
proper tongue, Aceldama, that is to say, the field of blood. 
For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be 
desolate (destroyed), and let no man dwell therein: and his 
bishopric let another take. ' ' 

Peter having thus disposed of the Papacy, the disciples 
prayed for direction and the "lot fell upon Matthias; and he 
was numbered with the eleven apostles." "Matthias, the 
apostle, was first in the rank of our Savior's disciples, and one 
of those who continued with him from his baptism to his ascen- 
sion." Acts 1:21-22. 

Thus Peter, the eldest apostle leading the proceedings, il- 
lustrates that it is God's will in answer to prayer; that it is 
not an arbitrarily arranged apostolic succession, but he that 
is first in following as a disciple, constant as a disciple from 
baptism to ascension, is in the apostolic succession. 

This is Peter's notice to the Pope. His very first acts in 
the primacy claimed for him by the Papal Church, are directed 
against Papacy itself. 

^Yh8it happens next! The Pope, the Judas Iscariot of 
Peter's prophetic symbolism, being put out of the bishopric, 
and the much boasted apostolic succession exploded by being 



166 

supplanted by a plain, unknown disciple, Peter, who himself 
purifies the Church which has taken his name, places her 
where she was in apostolic days and preaches that great Pen- 
tecostal sermon. That is the picture of his Church, redeemed ; 
Her power, her purity, her influence, her mission. The Holy 
Ghost in the second coming of Christ, comes to her ''to speak 
with other tongues." ''And they (the nations of the earth) 
were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another. Behold, 
are not all these which speak GaliileansT' (true Christians). 
And Peter in his sermon gives them verses, which John elab- 
orated in the Apocalypse, of great interest to the Papacy now. 
"And they spake the word of God with boldness." Acts 4 :31. 
The days of religious toleration for votes were over. 

But Peter, the elder Apostle, himself of the circumcision, 
speaks not only for the spiritual side of Christ's kingdom, but 
for the political; and a Jew knowing God's plan of spiritual 
and political government for the whole earth, being the in- 
heritance, may speak authoritatively for both the Jew and the 
Papacy, working so harmoniously against the Paulicians to 
exclude the Bible from the public school. If the Jews receive 
the prophecies of Moses, Isaiah, Daniel and the rest, and in 
the face of Peter's miracles reject the Messiah, there should 
still be room for a respectful hearing of Peter as an expositor 
of the prophets they do accept. They wait on an inheritance. 

"He shall choose our inheritance for us," — Psalms 47-4. 
The prophets variously and so often change the symbol, or 
rather history has so often in the first fulfillment found new 
proper nan>es, and the prophets telling our history symbolic- 
ally, in different ages, the symbols are of necessity often 
changed, and no well connected seriatim course of events so 
related. Eather, are they told in fragment, so the course of 
history profane, does not on its face, readily suggest history 
Sacred. So the inheritance to the Jew, has always existed in 
faith, but baffled identification, as Paul tells the Hebrews in 
11th, I. "Now faith is the substance of things (you have) 
hoped for the evidence of things (not yet made known to you) 
not seen. ' ' So Peter says : 1-4, "To an inheritance incorrupt- 
ible, and undefiled, (that will not be alienated or subject to 
plagues) and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for 
you. ' ' Now the Jews enumerated three heavens of which their 
"holy of holies," was the highest symbolic type, yet that was 
on earth, and perfectcly rational to them. Peter having as- 
sured them of the character though not the place of their 
inheritance, Paul tells them four years later in the 11th Chap- 
ter of Hebrews, "And truly, if they had been mindful (appre- 



167 

citative) of that country whence they came out, they might have 
had opportunity to have returned. But now they desire a 
better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore (whereof) God 
is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared 
for them a city.'' And these two verses are sandwiched in 
between eleven verses of faith citations, preceding and follow- 
ing. Plainly intimating to the Hebrews, that as soon as they 
have faith, they will have a country of which God himself is 
not to be ashamed. The best type in every way of such a 
country, now existing, is the United States. 

Made incorruptible and un defiled as Peter the Jew prom- 
ises, we would have the Garden of Eden, with every comfort 
man has been able to devise. What we got after a proper ex- 
ercise of faith, would probably not be a material loss from 
what we have now. 

Peter, the magnificent Jew, inheriting in this dispensation 
for his people, the mantle of Moses of the old, suffers in the 
Papacy for his zeal and impatience as did his Mosaic type at 
Meribah ; twice smiting the rock in impatience, yet the highest 
miracle he ever performed. So Peter, ^'refusing to be called 
the son of Pharaoh's daughter (the Papacy) ; choosing rather 
to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the 
pleasures of sin for a season; esteeming the reproach of 
Christ (before his whole nation), greater riches than the treas- 
ures of Egypt (Papacy) : for he had respect to the recompense 
of reward'' or inheritance- 
Peter here impatiently smites (twice) the Papacy and the 
Jew, the rocks holding back the water of spiritual and politi- 
cal life from all mankind. 

Like Moses, commissioned first to make known to the Israel- 
ites, the Divine will for their deliverance: and next to go with 
the elders of Israel to Pharaoh, ^^ requiring him, in the name 
of ''the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, to suffer the people to 
go three days' journe}^ into the wilderness (3 years in IJ. S.) 
to sacrifice unto the Lord their God." Like Moses, turning 
his rod into a serpent, and restoring it again ; making his hand 
leprous as snow, when he first drew it out of his bosom, and 
restoring it sound as before when next he drew it out; and 
turning the water of the (political) river into blood. 

xVs of old these signs ])egat faith in Moses, so the coming 
similar miracles in the church of Peter will beget faith in 
Peter. Like Moses, ordered into Mount Pisgah, his life work 
closed, to view the promised land, from across its border, so 
Peter, heir of Moses the prophet, is become a prophet, is 
ordered by God into the s^nnbolic Pisgah, the ''Babylon of 



168 

Peter,'' the symbol of America; there in Babylon, overlooking 
the Euphrates, the border of Mesopotamia, enclosing the 
'Garden of Eden; the Land of Paradise; the Promised' Land 
and inheritance of Jacob ; this Moses of the new dispensation 
Writes as did Moses of Old, his, ''Divine Ode," the ''Dying- 
Swan's Oration," to the elect of all the earth. 

But the Papacy appropriating the name of Peter, boasting 
his zeal in matters spiritual, and demonstrating their own in 
matters temporal and political, are not themselves to escape a 
demonstration of its power, and in his second epistle, "Zea, 
1 think it meet, as long as I am in this (Puritan) tabernacle, 
(inasmuch as you have lied about me) to stir you up, by put- 
ting you in remembrance.", and then he gives them a scath- 
ing and searching rebuke on their favorite practices, beside 
which a Papal anathema is as a tallow dip to a search light. 

As before Christ there was Pharisaism, or legal Judaism, 
Sadduceeism, or rationalistic Judaism, ending in infidelity; 
and Essenes, the representatives of the monasticism of all 
ages, so after the time of our Lord, these sects were known 
by different names. The Pharisees were called successively, 
Rabbinists, and the great teachers and rabbis; Cabalists are 
traditionists, and the Talmudists (Angus 546). "The Es- 
senes, also, are known in history (not only as the monastics 
of all ages but also) as Therapeutae (i. e. 5(9^t?-physicians) ; 
though some think that this name was given to a distinct, but 
similar (monastic) sect/' So, the blending of the priestly 
office with the medical, by the Papacy, or establishing the two 
in monasticism, brings down "regular" medicine in claimed 
apostolic succcession through the monks. The very word 
Therapeutics, "the discovery and application of remedies for 
diseases, ' ' is not only the name of an Egyptian Monastic sect, 
corruptly incorporated into the Church of Christ apostasized 
to Papacy, but it stands also a definition for ' ' soul-physician, ' ' 
carrying out the very blasphemy of the Papacy against Jesus 
Christ, and has brought through that blasphemy, and our cor- 
rupt, and illicit intercourse with Papacy, the curse of Revela- 
tion in multiplied diseases, increased mortality, and shortened 
span of human life. Because the United States, rehang on 
Divine Providence, publishing to the world, "In God We 
Trust," is a member of this sect an arm of the Papacy, "Who 
opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or 
that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple 
of God; showing himself (claiming the attributes) that he is 
God"— II Thess.: 2-4. 

These monastic descendants, wearing the uniform of the 



169 

United States, Dr. Leonai'd Wood, jumped nearly 500 num- 
bers to near the head of the Army; Dr. Admiral Rixey, at the 
bead of the Navy, whose demand on Roosevelt according to 
Dr. Reed, of Cincinnati, secured command of ships to doctors, 
and Dr. Wiley, head of the Pure Food Bureau. 

Gregory the VII, the most infamous of Popes, a "regular'^ 
doctor, and Thomas Aquinas (A-quin-ine-as, a 'Mesuit bark"), 
the leading theologian of the Papacy, "a celebrated theolo- 
gian, to whom the hyperbolical admiration of the dark ages 
gave the sounding titles of the angelical doctor, the fifth doctor 
of the Church, the eagle of divines, and the angel of the 
schools," (Davenport). 

'^Thomas Aquinas and Magnus were of the same school and 
the wonders of magic attributed to them were obviously 
results obtained by their chemical knowledge" — French. That 
this gentleman, Aquinas, was an '^angelical doctor," as a 
doctor, like his brother ''regular" made angels, and aptly 
combined with it an "eagle (our symbol) of divines," may be 
considered most probable when we consider the theology by 
which he holds his pre-eminence with the Papacy, achieved in 
the dark ages. "By command of God it is lawful to kill an 
innocent person, (like Lincoln and McKinley, if they are in 
the way of the church) to steal, or to commit fornication; be- 
cause he is the Lord of life and death and all things ; and it is 
due to Him thus to fulfill his commands." Summae Theo- 
logiae Compendium (Lutetiae Parisiorum, 1620). Ex-Prima 
Secundae, Quaest, 94. 

"It is much more grievous to corrupt faith which is the 
source and life of the soul, than to corrupt money, which only 
tends to the relief of the body. Hence, if coigners and male- 
factors are justly put to death by the secular authority, much 
more may heretics, not only be excommunicated, but put to 
death." St. Thom., II: 9; XI: article 3." To promote death 
seems to have been one of the "angelical, apostolic regular," 
doctor's specialties, which has come down "regularly," been 
practiced by his "regular" successors, and protected in this 
"angelical" business, by Uncle Sam, a lay member of the sect. 

It is a small matter for the Glory of Holy Mother Church ; 
as Dr. McCormack, a fellow member with Uncle Sam in the 
American Medical Association, says the "angelic regulars," 
cause but one-third of the sickness, and one-third of the deaths 
every year. That is a very small price for Roosevelt and Taft 
to pay for the Catholic vote. Politics is politics ; and business 
is business, even if it is a traffic in human life, and human hap- 
piness.

Moses in his song (Deut. 32) all but directly tells the Jews 
that Peter is right. Peter the Eock, points to the same Rock 
that Moses does. ''Give ear, ye heavens, and I will speak; 
and hear, earth (my followers), the words of my mouth. 
My doctrine shall drop (slowly) as the rain, my speech (what 
I now say) shall distil (slowly) as the dew, as the small rain 
upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass: 
Because I will publish the name of the Lord: (Jesus' Christ) 
ascribe ye greatness unto our God (the trinity). He is the 
Eock, His work is perfect: for all His ways are judgment: 
For the Lord's portion is His people (Jew and Gentile); 
Jacob is the lot (read up Lot, and lot) of his inheritance. He 
found him in a desert land, and in the luaste howling wilder- 
ness (there could hardly be conceived a more apt description 
of the United States, at the landing of the Pilgrims) ; he led 
about, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye/^ 
In the next verse, as though to further identify us, he uses 
our national emblem in the third word. ' ' As an eagle stirreth 
up her nest, fluttereth over her young (the states), spreadeth 
abroad her wings, taketh them (the states), beareth them on 
her wings (of Federal Government) : So the Lord alone did 
lead him, and there was no strange god with him. * * * 
But Jeshurun ("righteous, symbolical name of Israel also 
future tense of Shur, to see, behold or discover; prophetically) 
waxed fat and kicked: * * * then he (Jeshurun, national 
Israel) forsook'God which made him, and lightly esteemed the 
Eock ("Thou ART Peter, and on this Eock of faith'') of his 
salvation. They provoked him to jeolousy with strange gods 
(Papal affiliations), with abominations provoked (prophetic) 
him to anger. They sacrificed (will sacrifice) unto devils 
(Pope, the Man of Sin), not to God; to gods whom they knew 
not (in national organization or charter) to new gods that 
came newly up (Papacy prophetic), whom your fathers feared 
not (coming newly up). They have moved me to jealousy 
with that which is not God (but since a man usurper) ; they 
have provoked me to anger with their vanities (casting me 
away for so-called science, and my power for the Pope's 
power) ; and I will move them to jealousy (anger) with those 
which are not a people (nation) ; I will provoke them to anger 
with a foolish (pretending) nation. Of the Eock that begat 
thee (Puritanism) thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God 
that formed thee. For a fire is kindled in mine anger (tuber- 
culosis and other diseases), and shall burn unto the lowest 
hell, and shall consume the earth tvith her increase (second 
coming of Christ), and set on fire the foundations (thrones) of 



171 

the mountains (nations). I will heap mischief upon them; I 
will spend mine arrows upon them. They shall be burnt with 
hunger (famine), and devoured with burning heat, and with 
bitter destruction: I will also send the teeth of beasts (Pap- 
acy) upon them, with the poison of serpents of the dust (Papal 
medical arm). The sword without (Japan), and terror within 
(Papacy), shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, 
the suckling also (the neiv disease of infantile paralysis) with 
the man of gray hairs. I said, I would scatter them into cor- 
ners, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from 
among men: Were it not that I feared the wrath (misrepre- 
sentation) of the enemy, lest their adversaries should behave 
themselves strangely (untruthfully), and lest they should say, 
Our hand is high, and the Lord hath not done all this. For 
they are a nation void of counsel, neither is there any under- 
standing in them. O that they were wise, that they understood 
this, that they would consider their latter end. Hoiv should 
one (Roosevelt), chase a thousand, and two (Eoosevelt and 
Taft) put ten thousand to flight. Except their Rock had sold 
(bought) them, and the Lord had shut them up (allowed) f 
For THEIR rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies them- 
selves being judges. For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, 
and of the fields of Gomorrah: their grapes (fruit) are grapes 
of gal], their clusters (priest, doctor and sister) are bitter. 
Their wine (of life or medicine of healing) is the poison of 
dragons, and the cruel venom of asps (in its results). Is not 
this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my trea- 
sures? To ME belongeth vengeance, and recompence (I will 
judge who are heretics) ; their foot shall slide in DUE time: 
for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that 
shall come upon them make haste.'' You recall now the an- 
swer Christ made to Peter, when he asked And what shall this 
man do! "If 7 will that he tarry till I come, what is that to 
thee ? follow thou me. " 

"For the Lord shall judge His (chosen) people, and repent 
Himself for His servants, when He seeth that their power is 
gone, and there is none (power) shut up or left. And he shall 
say (in practical test). Where are their gods, (of healing, and 
power) their rock in WHOM they trusted, which did eat the fat 
of their sacrifices (appropriations), and drank the wine of the 
drink offerings (political power) ? let them rise up and help you, 
and be your protection. See now that /, even I, am he, and there 
is no god with me : I kill, and I make alive ; I wound, and I heal ; 
neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand. For I 
lift up my hand to heaven, and say I live for ever. If I whet 



172 

my. glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; 
I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them 
that hate me. 1 will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and 
my sword shall devour flesh (consumption) ; and that with the 
blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of 
revenges upon the enemy. Rejoice, ye nations with His 
(chosen) people: for He will avenge the blood of His servants 
(Lincoln and McKinley), and will render vengeance to His 
adversaries, and will be merciful unto His land, and to His 
(chosen) people. And Moses came and spake all the words of 
this song (of the Millenial Sabbath) in the ears of the people, 
he, and Ho shea, the son of Nun (Ho shea is the same as Hoseah 
and signifies ^'salvation").'' This points directly to Christ ^s 
saying: Thou art Peter and on this Rock of faith I will build 
my salvation. (Son of Nun, points directly to the Papacy 
where a Nun is part of its economy. A liberal translation 
then is, Moses is joined by Peter of the circumcision, desig- 
nated the Rock of salvation, perverted by the Papacy, to a son 
of Nun). And he (they, as Moses is now talking with Peter in 
the new dispensation), said unto them, Set your hearts unto 
all the words which I testify (show — demonstrate) among you 
this day, which ye shall command your children to observe to 
do, all the words of THIS LAW. For it is not a vain thing 
for you; because it is your (national) life (as Lincoln my 
prophet told you): and through this thing ye shall prolong 
your days in the land, whither ye go over Jordan (Mississippi) 
to possess it." 

Then God tells Moses in the past to go up unto Nebo, over 
against Jericho ; and likewise he tells Peter to get himself into 
Babylon of Peter, over against Jericho ; then he says to Moses 
the prophet, and to Peter the Papist; ''Yet thou shalt see the 
land before thee; but thou shalt not go thither unto the land 
which I give the children of Israel/^ 

In the succeeding chapter is the blessing of Moses upon the 
children of Israel, closing thus: ''Thy shoes shall be iron and 
brass' (railways); and as thjdays, (daily habit) so shall thy 
strength be. There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun, 
who rideth upon the heaven in thy help, and in his excellency 
on the sky (promised signs). The eternal God is thy refuge, 
and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust 
out the enemy from before thee; and shall say (and you shall 
say), Destroy them. Israel then shall dwell in safety alone 
(no Papal relation) : the fountain of Jacob shall be upon a land 
of corn and wine ; and also his heavens shall drop down dew. 

Happy are thou, Israel : who is like unto thee, people 



173 

saved by the Lord, the shield of thy help, and who is the 
sword of thy excellency! and thine enemies shall be found 
liars nnto thee ; and thou shalt tread upon their high places. 
"And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he 
died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated" (120 
plus the date of the Constitution, equals, 1907, and Roosevelt). 

The story of Joseph sold into Egypt is a touching story, yet 
in its symbolic projection is much more touching; for it 
touches us. Read it with the Puritan for Jacob, and Joseph 
as Uncle Sam, his coat of many colors our many States; his 
sale by his brethren into Egypt, the work of the Holy Alliance, 
dumping immigrants upon us, to outvote us in the interest; 
the supremacy of the divine right of earthly kings ; rising to 
the mastery of the house of Pharaoh; the solicitude of the 
brethren who had taken his coat of many colors from him, and 
his kindness to them in return, and the touching way in which 
he performed his filial duty, are things we are about to witness 
nationally. As Moses says: "Give ear, ye heavens, and I 
(Moses, dead 3,300 years) will speak; and hear, earth, the 
words of my mouth." 

"When the sons of Jacob went down to Egypt, (to buy 
corn) and Joseph knew them, and they knew not him; for they 
it may be remarked, were of an age not to be greatly changed 
by the lapse of years, and were still sustaining the character 
in which Joseph had always seen them; whilst he himself had 
meanwhile grown out of the stripling into the man, and from 
a shepherd-boy was become the ruler of a kingdom; (he made 
himself strange and spake roughly and charged them with 
Iteing spies, and they answered like Gibbons, ' ^ we are true men 
thy servants are not spies,") when his brethren thus came 
before him, his question was, ^Is your father (the divine right 
of kings) yet alive?' 

They went down a second time, and again the question was, 
"Is your father well, the old man of whom ye spake, is he yet 
alive?" By a stratagem he now detains- Benjamin (Eng- 
land), leaving the others, if they would, to go their way. 

But Judah (the spirit of loyalty) came near unto him, and 
entreated him for his brother, telling him how that he had 
been surety to his father to bring him back; how that his 
father was an old man, and this was the child of his old age, 
and that he loved him ; how it would come to pass that if he 
should not see the lad with him he would die, and his gray 
hairs be brought with sorrow to the grave; for "how shall I 
go to my father, and the lad be not with me, lest, peradventure, 
I see the evil that shall come to my father ? ' ' 



174 

Here, without knowing it, he had struck the string, that was 
the tenderest of all. Joseph's firmness forsook him at this 
repeated mention of his father, and in terms so touching : he 
could not refrain himself any longer ; and causing every man 
to go out, he made himself known to his bretliren (other 
nations). 

Then, even in the paroxysm which came on him, for he wept 
aloud, so that the Egyptians (Papists) heard, still his first 
words uttered from the fulness of his heart were, ''Doth my 
father yet live!" He now bids them hasten and bring the 
old man down, bearing to him tokens of his love and tidings 
ot his glory. 

He goes to meet him ; he presents himself unto him, and falls 
on his neck, and weeps on his neck a good ivhile; he provides 
for him and his household out of the fat of the land; he sets 
him before Pharoah. By and by he hears that he is sick, and 
hastens to visit him; he receives his blessing; watches his 
death bed; embalms his body; mourns for him threescore and 
ten days ; and then carries him, as he had desired, into Canaan 
to bury him, taking with him, as an escort to do him honor, ' ' all 
the elders of Israel (Congressmen), and all the servants of 
Pharoah, and all his house, and the house of his brethren, 
chariots (navies) and horsemen (armies), a very* great com- 
pany." How natural was it now for his brethren (who had 
been in league to dump this Catholic vote on him) to think 
that the tie by which alone they could imagine Joseph to be 
held to them was dissolved; that any respect he might have 
felt or feigned for them must have been buried in the cave of 
Machpelah, and that he would now requite to them the evil 
they had done! "And they sent a messenger unto Joseph 
saying,. Thy father did command before he died, saying, So 
shall ye say unto Joseph, Forgive, I pray thee now, the tres- 
pass of thy brethren, and their sin; for they did unto thee 
evil." And then they add of themselves, as if well aware of 
the surest road to their brother's heart, "Forgive, we pray 
thee, the trespass of the servants of the God of thy father." 
In everything the father's name is still put foremost: it is 
his memory which they count upon as their shield and buckler. 
It is' not the constancy with which the son'^s strong affection 
for his father had lived through an interval of twenty years 
absence (1923), and, what is more, through the temptation of 
sudden promotion to the highest estate; it is not the noble- 
minded frankness with which he still acknowledges his kin- 
dred, and makes way for them, "shepherds" as they were, 
to the throne of Pharaoh (the Pope) himself; it is not the 



175 

simplicity and singleness of heart which allow him to give all 
the first-horn of Egypt (Papacy), men over whom he bore 
absolute rule, an opportunity for observing his own compara- 
tively humble origin, by leading them in attendance upon his 
father's corpse to the valleys of Canaan and the modest cradle 
of his race ; it is not, in a word, the grace, but the identity, of 
Joseph's character, the light in which it is exhibited by him- 
self, and the light in which it is regarded by his brethren, to 
which I now point as stamping it with marks of reality not to 
be gainsaid. Some writers have considered Joseph as a type 
of Christ ; and it requires not much ingenuity to find out some 
resemblances, as his being hated by his brethren, sold for 
money, plunged into deep affliction (civil war), and then raised 
to power and honor, etc. ; but as we have no intimation in any 
part of Scripture that Joseph was constituted a figure of our 
Lord, and that this was one design of recording his history at 
length, all such applications want authority, and cannot safely 
be indulged. The account seems rather to have been left for 
its moral uses, and that it should afford, by its inimitable sim- 
plicity and truth to nature, a point of irresistible internal evi- 
dence of the truth of Moses' narrative" (Watson). The prac- 
ticability of application of this symbol to Peter himself, and to 
a certain national party in politics in this country, is readily 
perceived, and without knowing if the symbol is then ex- 
hausted, it testifies abundantly to the great subtlety of sacred 
utterance. 

Joseph, by his brethren was sold into Egypt, for money. 
Peter was sold into the Papacy by his brethren, claiming 
through him apostolic succession. Joseph had great affection 
for his father. Peter, for his Master. Joseph's mother died 
while he was yet young. Peter's mother church, was dying at 
the top when Peter's great ministry was yet young. Joseph 
had a coat of many colors. Peter's Papacy is clothed with 
power, in nations of many tongues. Joseph was kept at home 
while his brethren were sent to feed the flocks. The Papacy 
keep Peter forever at Eome, while his brethren shear the 
sheep the Master told him to feed. Joseph's bloody garment 
is amply figured in the Paulician blood, marking the Papal 
trail. Joseph knew his brethren when they knew him not. 

Peter's second epistle shows that he knew the serpents who 
claimed to be his brethren, when they knew him not. Joseph 
was anxious to know if his father was alive. The Papacy 
issued a bull against Halley's comet, anxious, for fear he was 
alive. Joseph detains Benjamin, but Judah came near and 
entreated him for his brother, to bring him back to his father. 



176 

Peter seeks to win attention of Eomanists to Ms false 
position, and the attention of Jndah (Jndas) the United 
States; surety to God for them in the United States. The 
sympathetic appeal to Joseph made him known to his breth- 
ren, Peter's appeal to the Hebrews; he of the circumcision, 
to the circumcised; to the loyal hearts in the Eoman commu- 
nion; will yet make him known to his brethren. As Joseph 
wept aloud, so the Egyptians heard, so Peter is crying aloud, 
and the Papacy will hear. As Joseph sent his father tidings^ 
and tokens of love, went to meet him coming with the brethren, 
and set him before Pharoah; so Peter, the Eock, sends tidings 
and tokens to his father coming with his Jewish and Eoman 
reformed brethren, and set his Puritan father before Pharoah 
(the Pope). Joseph when he heard his father was sick, visits 
him, watches his death-bed, embalms his body, buried him in 
Canaan, escorted by all the elders of Israel, ^ ' and all the ser- 
vants of Pharaoh, and all his house, and the house of his 
brethren, chariots and horsemen, a very great company. ' ' So 
Peter, when through the circumcised, he hears that the old 
Pope is sick, will visit him, with vengeance, watch his death- 
bed with pleasure, embalm his body with satisfaction, bury 
him in Canaan (wickedness) escorted by all the elders of 
Israel, and all the servants of Pharaoh and his church, and 
the house of his brethren (in temporal power) and their 
chariots, and horsemen a very great company. 

The thoughtful Jew will not forget that there is a Talmud 
of Jerusalem, and a Talmud of Babylon. Nor will he forget 
that with all his veneration for Jerusalem, and the things of 
Jerusalem, the Talmud of Babylon is most valued by them. 
He will remember that in the abridgement made by Maimo- 
nides in the twelfth century, some of its '^ greatest absurdi- 
ties" were ^^ rejected." 

It may not be a profane coincidence that ^'The Gemara is 
stuffed with dreams and chimeras, with many ignorant and 
impertinent questions, and the style very coarse." Nor will 
the Jew who reverences Moses forget that the Pope they are 
working with in this country to shut their Bible and ours out 
of the public schools took a great interest in the Talmud. 
' ' Some of the Popes, with a barbarous zeal, and a timidity of 
spirit for the success of the Christian religion, which the 
belief of its divinity can never excuse, ordered great numbers 
of the Talmud to be burned. Gregory IX burned about twenty 
cart loads ; and Paul IV ordered twelve thousand copies of the 
Talmud to be destroyed." Brown. Gregory IX was a Pope 
and a doctor, and the Council of Jewish women is now working 



177 

with the Pope ^'s doctors to get for the Pope a National Health 
Department; to be followed if possible to treat Jews here as 
they treated them in France, ard everywhere they have the 
power to prey on Jewish thrift. 

^'Eabbi Jiidah (ever the name a symbol of the United 
States) on this occasion (compilation) being rector of the 
school at Tibei:ias, and president of the Sanhedrim in that 
place, undertook the work, and compiled it in six books, each 
consisting of several tracts, which altogether make up the 
number of sixty-three. This learned author computes that 
the Mishna was composed about the 150th year of our Lord.'' 
The United States, symbolized in Israel, Judah and Babylon, 
is not far from her 150th year. 

The thoughtful Jew may see in the twelve sons of the pro- 
mise and the daughter the analogy of the United States to 
the family of the 'inheritance'' of old. In the indignity 
offered to the daughter, the indignity by the United States to 
the Paulician founders by fornication with Papacy ; the history 
of Joseph and his brethren ; the bondage in Egypt, the plagues 
now being rife here; the "botch" standing generally for trans- 
missible disease ; the plague on the cattle, now showing: alarm- 
ingly here in tubercular cattle. 

Aaron's serpent rod, swallowing the serpent rods of the 
Egyptian magicians; showing, however subtle the rod of the 
Pope, the rod of the Jew would finally prevail; the differing 
descriptions of the sacred tent, indicating two different ones ; 
one not yet built ; the sending of the twelve spies to the Prom- 
ised Land, in our twelve original colonies in the Philadel- 
phia Congress; the alarming strength and defenses of the 
country spied out, conforming to our strength; the heretofore 
inharmonious interpretation of the law, now putting the man- 
tle of Moses on the shoulders of Peter in the new dispensation, 
and Joshua yet to arise; the marvellous deeds preceding the 
distribution between the tribes of the conquered, of the Old, 
and yet to be conquered of the New, with the same exhortation 
to choose between Jehovah and idolatry. 

Their election to follow Jehovah after the pious example of 
their chief, and the succeeding period showing no trace of the 
fulfillment of the promise, you have the symbol, almost real- 
ized down to date. 

If for Hezekiah we read Lincoln, for Sennacherib we read 
Jefferson Davis, for Josiah we read McKinley, for Pharaoh- 
Necho we read the Pope, and for Megiddo we read Armaged- 
don we may realize that today we are entered on the history 

1988-12 



178 

of Israel restored, and the close of the histories symbolic, of 
Judah, and Babylon merged in the United States ; and of the 
Papacy. Upon the ruins of Israel, of Judah, of Babylon, of 
the United States, of the Papacy, Jerusalem will be rebuilt, 
and her temple will be the nations of the earth. In the *^new 
heaven and a new earth,'' of Eev. 21, with ''I and my Father 
are one, ' ' realized, and acknowledged, the Jew and true Chris- 
tian, united as substantially they always have been, will in- 
herit both heaven and earth. 

The fatal error of the Jews, politically and religiously, was 
their alliances with idolatry. Nationally they lost their char- 
ter and their property. As a matter of law the Pope, nor 
any one for him can hold property in this country, for he is an 
alien and an enemy. As a matter of law Uncle Sam has for- 
feited his charter from Divine Providence, and holds subject 
to the Divine disposal; virtually not a sovereign, as he as- 
sumes to be, and disease, the Sheriff of the High Court of 
Justice stands at the door. 

The Almighty has tried the family type of government ; the 
theocratic; and kings, for his chosen, only to disperse, for 
lack of faith, and for disobedience. That was his processional 
He has written, Thou shalt have no other Gods before or 
beside me, on almost every page of the Old Testament, and 
on every page of Jewish history. Five hundred years of 
Jewish-Egyptian object lesson condensed, and intensified. 
Four thousand years of object-lesson, to the time of Christ. 
The lesson is repeated with the Jew practically eliminated. 
Christ is born; the King; his claim rejected, and his kingdom 
defeated. Moses was the type in the Processional. Jesus 
Christ is the Eecessional. Without knowing exactly, we count 
four creative days, or four thousand years to Christ ; then to- 
night is Saturday night, and tomorrow is the Sabbath ^of 
Creation. Moses demonstrated nationally, in leading tender- 
ness, and the Divine wrath, and smiting power. Christ re- 
jected nationally, leads in individual tenderness, which if ap- 
preciated could save the State. The Almighty's plans are 
not changed, nor do they longer wait. 

Sixteen hundred years approximately from Noah to call 
and covenant with Abraham. Sixteen hundred years approxi- 
mately from Christ to the rise of the Puritans and the call to 
a new Israel. 

One hundred and sixty years approximately from Abra- 
ham's covenant to the blessing of Jacob. One hundred and 
sixty years approximately from the landing of the Pilgrims 
to the signing of our Constitution. 



179 

Jacob was sent by Isaac, and with his blessing, to Laban 
his mother's brother for a wife. Here Laban stands for Uncle 
Sam, and Jacob for the Puritan. 

^^And Laban said unto him, Surely thou art my hone and 
my flesh. And he abode with him the space of a month." 
Gen. : 29-14. A month is the twelfth part of a prophetic year 
or term, and the Constitution of the United States was signed 
in the twelfth year of her independence. 

Jacob served Uncle Sam, 7 years for Rachel, the younger 
daughter ; a virgin when married to Jacob. Uncle Sam served 
the Puritan idea approximately 70 years, when President 
Pierce put Postmaster General Campbell in his Cabinet, for 
the Catholic vote. That ^'fulfilled" Rachel's ^'week" of 7 
prophetic days. Jacob served Uncle Sam, or Laban yet seven 
more years for Leah, the elder sister, whom Laban had defiled 
(L^ncle Sam and Papacy) and insisted that '^It must not be so 
done in our country, to give the younger (in marriage) before 
the firstborn. " This I take it is the seven years of Roosevelt's 
intimacy with Papacy. However, Uncle Sam will, in trading 
politically with Papal Idolatry from President Pierce until 
1923, have filled approximately 70 years, which will '^fulfill" 
the ^^week" of Leah (the Papacy), in whom Jacob was de- 
ceived, by defilement of her, with Uncle Sam. Uncle Sam also 
deceived Jacob, because he first agreed that Jacob should have 
Rachel the younger (the Paulician) and forced him to marry 
Leah, the elder, and incestous. 

Reuben was the first fruit of this union of Jacob and Leah, 
and "Reuben having defiled his father's concubine Bilhah, 
lost his birthright, and all the privileges of primogeniture." 
Gen. : 35-22. Simeon was the second of the fruit of Jacob and 
Leah, and Jacob on his deathbed, in indignation against Si- 
meon and Levi for their cruelty to the Schechemites (Gen.: 
49-5), declares: *'I will divide them in Jacob, and scatter them 
in Israel." The Schechemites were called Sychar in the New 
Testament, after words Neopolis, Nablous, Napalose, and 
Napolose, a city of Samaria, near the parcel of ground which 
Jacob bought of Hamor, the father of Sechem, and gave to his 
son Joseph. Here Joseph's bones were brought out of Egypt 
to be interred^ and on the same piece of ground was the well 
called Jacob's well, at which our Saviour sat down when he 
had the memorable conversation with the woman of Samaria 
(John 4), which caused her and many other inhabitants of 
Sechem, or Sychar (priestly, and medical idolators) to re- 
ceive him as the Messiah." Napolose, suggests Napoleon, 
standing for "France, once the Sun of Papal power, and the 



180 

Sun of Revelation. Hamor is suggested in Hamonah, a city 
where Ezekiel (39-12) foretold the burial of Gog (idolatry) 
and his people would be. We know not any town of this name 
in Palestine, Hamonah signifies multitude; and the prophet 
intended to show that the slaughter of Gog's people would be 
so great, that the place of their burial might be called multi- 
tude." Broivn. 

Levi was the third son of this union, and suffered the indig- 
nation with Simeon. 

Judah, the fourth of the union of Jacob and Leah, and upon 
which the blessing descended as a ^^ Lion's whelp" (whelp of 
Great Britain), is symbolized in the United States, originally 
the theocratic and democratic idea of Old Israel. 

Now Rachel ivas barren, but Jacob had, at her request, by 
her maid Bilhah (Bill-ha-ha), Dan for the first born (and 
Dan signifies Judge). 

Then Jacob took to wife, Zilhah, Leah's maid, and they had 
a son Gad. The second son by Zilpah was Asher. Issacher 
was the fifth son of Jacob and Leah. He is called ^^a strong 
ass couching down between two burdens, ' ' and its significance 
is elsewhere treated. 

Zebulun was the sixth son of Jacob and Leah, and afterward 
Leah bare Jacob a daughter, Dinah. Dinah stands symbolic- 
ally for the Paulician faith, which in its essence, is reflected 
in the life of Moses ; simply, faith and obedience, and is of the 
spiritual part of this inheritance, the political being the fruit. 
A virgin in prophecy, stands for a pure religion. '^When 
Jacob returned into Canaan, Dinah, then about 15 or 16 years 
old, attended a festival of the Schechemites, to see the women 
of the country, when Schechem, son of Hamor, the Hivite, 
prince of the city (nation) ravished or seduced her, and after- 
wards desired his father (the Pope) to procure her for his 
wife. Dinah's brothers, . being informed of what had passed, 
were much exasperated ; and having made insidious proposals 
to Sachem (France) to his father Hamor (the Pope), and to 
the inhabitants of their city (France), slew and plundered 
them, (the Papacy), and carried oif Dinah; symbolizing the 
trouble in France today. Here is our relationship to France. 

Dinah's age, 15 or 16, refers us to the corruption and blood 
of the church in France in 1500 and 1600, in the name of the 
ravished church. Hamor, the Hivite, can stand here for the 
Papacy, the Hivites, worshipped the sun under the figure of 
a serpent. Then Rachel bare Joseph, who stands symbolically 
for the Puritanic idea in the United States. Then the flocks 



181 

which Jacob had increased unto a '^multitude," for Laban's 
(Uncle Sam's) were divided. Gen.: 30-31. 

''And he (Uncle Sam) said: What shall I give thee? And 
Jacob said, Thou shalt not give me anything : if thou wilt do 
this thing for me, I will again feed and keep thy flock. I will 
pass through all thy flock today, removing from thence all the 
speckled and spotted cattle (people), and all the brown (off 
colored) cattle among the sheep (people), and the spotted 
and speckled among the goats; and of such shall be my hire. 

So shall my righteousness ansiver for me in time to come, 
when it shall come /or my hire before thy face: every one that 
is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown 
among the sheep, that shall be counted (as) stolen with (by) 
me. And Laban (Uncle Sam) said, Behold, I would it might 
he according to thy word. And he (Uncle Sam) removed 
that day, the ringstraked, spotted and brown among the flock 
and gave them (unblemished) into the hand of his'so^i5. And 
he set three days' journey betwixt himself and Jacob: and 
Jacob fed the rest of Laban 's (Uncle Sam's) flocks." This 
three days' journey counting them as three creative days of 
1000 years each, laps over Moses' time and the Egyptian cap- 
tivity, and to Joshua. Joshua to Esther only prefigures the 
recessional, now closing, from Judah (Judas) Uncle Sam, 
hack through the Judges, and Kings to the family of Jacob, 
in the Garden of Eden, Promised Land and ''new heaven and 
new earth." The utter dethroning in all the earth of Vashti 
(the Papal Queen), and the enthroning of Esther the beauti- 
ful Jewish Queen, according to the covenant. "Then Esther 
bade them return Mordecai this answer : Go, gather together 
all the Jews that are present in Shushan, (from whence 
Darius decree went forth for rebuilding the temple) and fast 
ye for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, (work in- 
cesantly for three years) night or day : I also and my maidens 
will fast likewise; and so will I go in unto the king, ivhich is 
not according to the km; and if I perish, I perish. So Mor- 
decai went his way, and did according to all that Esther had 
commanded him." 4-15. 

And Haman (the Pope) was hanged on the gallows he had 
prepared for Uncle Sam, the chosen people. 

The "great eagle," taking a sprig from the top of the tallest 
of Lebanon, and carrying it away into the wilderness, pecu- 
liarly identifies Uncle Sam as a .cedar of Lebanon, and verse 
37, of the 30th of Genesis, shows other woods to indicate other 
nations, prospectively from us. Solomon's temple was built 
of cedar of Lebanon, and through the very loftiness of the 



182 

Lebanon and Solomon symbols, it is sought to indicate majes- 
tic proportions and grandeur of the government of the ^in- 
heritance," The association of Lebanon and Solomon's temple, 
with the best temporal attainment of the chosen, and the asso- 
ciation of the cedars of Lebanon with prophecy, and the re- 
building of the temple, make us by all rules of symbolic 
prophecy, the inheritance of fhe chosen people. 

''And (Chap. 31) he heard the words of Laban's sons (the 
different states), saying Jacob hath taken away all that was 
our father's: and of that which was our father's hath he 
gotten all this glory. And Jacob beheld the countenance of 
Laban, (Uncle Sam) and behold it was not toward him as 
before. And the Lord said unto Jacob, Return unto the land 
of thy fathers, (spirit of the Pilgrims) and to thy kindred; 
(for Popery is alien) and / will be with thee. And Jacob 
sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field unto his flock, (his 
household). And said unto them, I see your father's coun- 
tenance, that it is not toward me as before ; but the God of my 
father hath been with me. And ye know that with all my 
power I have served your father. And your father hath 
deceived me, (putting Strauss in the Cabinet, was only a 
mask to the Papal scheme) and changed my wages ten times; 
but God suffered him not to hurt me." Ten times, or one 
thousand prophetic years, takes us back to II Kings 17-18. 
''Therefore the Lord was very angry with Israel (Israel in 
this symbol standing for Uncle Sam), smdi removed them, out 
of his sight : there was none left but the tribe of Judah (Judas- 
Uncle Sam) only." Jeroboam at this point, is the symbol and 
a good photograph of Roosevelt. Of the 31st of Genesis, 
verses 10-11 and 12, "rams" stand for the political side of the 
nation, adulterous with the Papacy, and cattle stand for the 
Papacy, being objects of worship in ancient Egypt, the Pope's 
symbol. "And the angel of God spake unto me in a dream, 
saying, Jacob: (my people). And I (Jacob's people) said. 
Here am I. And he said. Lift up now thine eyes, (open your 
eyes) and see, all the rams which leap upon the cattle are ring- 
straked, speckled, and grisled: (mongrels) for I have seen all 
that Laban (Uncle Sam) doeth unto thee. I sun. the God of 
Bethel, (house of God) where thou anointest the pillar, and 
where thou vowedst a vow unto me: now arise, get thee out 
from this land, (condition) and return (by turning out Papal 
idolatry) unto the land (condition) of thy kindred. And 
Rachel (the Jew) and Leah (the Puritan) answered and said 
unto him. Is there yet any portion or inheritance for us in 
our father's house? Are we not counted of him strangers? 



183 

for he hath sold us, and hath quite devoured also our money. 
For all the riches (rights under the Constitution) which God 
hath taken (takes) from our father (Uncle Sam), that is 
ours, and our children's: (through reversion): now then 
(Jacob), whatsoever God hath said unto thee, DO. Then 
Jacob rose up, and set his sons (the states), and his wives 
(the Jew and Puritan) upon camels (votes). And he carried 
away all his cattle, and all his goods which he had gotten, the 
cattle (also) of his (additional) getting, which he had (thus) 
gotton in Padanaram (Syria, subdued by David), for to go to 
Isaac (who had blessed him with the typical United States in 
Gen, 27:27-28-29), his father in the land of Canaan (promised 
to Abraham). 

And Laban (Uncle Sam) went to shear his sheep (trade the 
people's liberties and religious professions, for Papal votes): 
and Kachel (the Jew and probably Wall Street gentlemen) 
had stolen the images (relations with Morgan the Pope's 
banker) that were her father's (Papal financial influence). 
And Jacob stole away (the heart) unawares to Laban (Uncle 
Sam) the Syrian (subdued by David), in that he told him not 
that he fled. So, he fled with all that he had (came out 
of idolatry) ; and he rose up, and passed over the river (elec- 
tion), and set his face toward the mount Gilead ("hill of wit- 
ness"). And it was told Laban (Uncle Sam) on the third 
(prophetic) day that Jacob was (would) fled (which takes us 
to the time of Joshua, 24:24). ''And the people said unto 
Joshua, the Lord our God will we serve, (these were presiden- 
tial election returns) and his voice will we obey. So Joshua 
made a covenant with the people that day, and set them a 
statute and an ordinance in Shechem (the midst or Sun of 
Papal idolatry and influence). And he (we) took his brethren 
with him, and pursued after him (Jacob the Puritan) seven 
days' journey: (seven calendar years) and they overtook him 
(the Puritan) in the mount Gilead" substitution of "balm of 
Gilead," or herbal medicine of the Bible, for the mineral or 
poison medicine of the Pope. The name Eeuben signifies, ' ' he, 
the Lord, sees the son;'^ so called in reference to the sentiment 
of his mother, "the Lord hath looked on my affliction;" the 
eldest son of Jacob and Leah. ' ' Their ' ' inheritance, ' ' had the 
mountains of Gilead (herbal medicine) east, and Jordan (the 
Mississippi- John Ireland) west. Figuring these seven years 
backwards, to apply them to Jewish history, and allowing but 
the value of prophetic day's journey, or 350 years, we figure 
from Joshua to II. Samuel 4th, and the anointing of King 
David. In this very interesting narrative of our history, 



184 

Eechab stands for the Pope's doctors, and Baanah for John 
Ireland, who smote Ish (itch) bosh (botch) eth (Eoosevelt) 
''under the fifth rib." And his head was subsequently pre- 
sented to King David, who made some remarks to the ' ' regu- 
lar'' doctor and John Ireland who were of the presentation, 
as representatives of Rimmon (signifying ''pomegranate") 
and here made to stand for the embalmed Palms standing in 
the house of the ''BEEH-o-thite/' The humor of this chap- 
ter, prophetically, is irresistible. When the serious part of this 
trouble is over, it will be found, that the Bible prophetically, 
has joked everybody, and therein will be found demonstrated, 
that the wisdom of man, is foolishness with God. No one will 
be able to justify themselves, or josh their neighbor, and the 
theoretical wise man, will find himself a star gazer, as in 
Christ's time. 

And God came to Laban (Uncle Sam) the Syrian in a dream 
by night (looking back over 50 years, one-half of a prophetic 
day), and said unto him. Take heed that thou speak not to 
Jacob, either good (deceitfully) or bad (in cursing). Then La- 
ban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the 
mount; and Laban (Uncle Sam) with his brethren (the "regu- 
lar" doctor and the Papacy) pitched in the mount of Gilead 
(herbal medical). And Laban said to Jacob, What hast thou 
done, that thou hast stolen away unawares to me, and carried 
away my daughters (the Jew and Puritan), as captives taken 
with the sword ? Wherefore didst thou flee away secretly, and 
steal (hast stolen me) away from me ; and didst not tell me, that 
I might have sent thee away with mirth, and with songs, 
with tabret, and with harp ? And hast not suffered me to kiss my 
sons (the states) and my daughters? thou hast now done fool- 
ishly in so doing. It is in the power of my hand to do you hurt : 
but the God of your father spake unto me yesternight, say- 
ing. Take thou heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good 
or bad. 

And now, though thou wouldst needs be gone (hast gone), 
because thou sore longest after thy father's house (since 
I'ranklin Pierce, which is "sore" long enough), yet wherefore 
hast thou stolen my godsf And Jacob answered and said to 
Laban, Because I was afraid: for I said, Peradventure thou 
wouldst take by force ("supplant by fraud") thy daughters 
from me. With ivhomsoever thou findest thy gods, let him not 
live: before our brethren (the nations) discern thou what is 
thine with me, and take it to thee. For Jacob knew not that 
Rachel (the Jew) had stolen them. (Jacob didn't know that 
his children, the Jews had gone in with the Catholics to keep 



185 

the knowledge of his inheritance from the children in the 
public schools, and were working for the Health Department 
scheme to give the Pope the political power to take the "in- 
heritance" himself, because the Papacy "came newly up,'' 
since Jacob). And Laban went into Jacob's tent, and into 
Leah's tent, but he found them not. Then went he out of 
Leah's tent, and entered into Rachel's tent. Now Rachel had 
taken the images, and put thetn in the camel's furniture (finan- 
cial and business relations against the Mosaic law, with idola- 
try-the Papacy) and sat upon them (rested on them, habitu- 
ally). And Laban searched all the tent, but found them not. 
And she said to her father (Uncle Sam), Let it not displease 
my lord that I cannot rise up before thee (in these financial 
arrangements) ; for the custom of women is upon me (I am 
very unv\^ell — it is my time). And he searched, but found not 
the images. And Jacob was wroth (it was his turn), and 
chode with Laban (Uncle Sam) : and Jacob (the Puritan) an- 
swered and said to Laban (Uncle Sam), What is my trespass! 
what is my sin, that thou hast so hotly ( adulter ously) pursued 
after me? AAHiereas thou hast searched all my stuff (?) what 
hast thou found of all 'thy household stuff? set it here before 
my brethren and thy brethren (all nations), that they may 
judge betwixt us both. This twenty years (since the Republi- 
can Ideas of the French and the Dutch Republics) have I been 
with thee; thy ewes and thy she goats have not cast their 
young (Puritan Presidents have been patriots), and the rams 
(the voters) of thy flock have I not eaten. That which was 
torn of beasts (seduced by Papacy) I brought not unto thee; I 
bare the loss of it ; of my hand didst thou require it, whether 
stolen by day (open repudiation), or stolen by night (quiet 
political intrigue). Thus I was; in the day the drought 
(dearth of political control) consumed me, and the frost (poli- 
tical bargains) by night; and my sleep departed from my eyes. 
Thus have I been twenty years in thy house; I served thee 
fourteen years for thy two daughters (Pierce was 14th Presi- 
dent), and six years for thy cattle (which takes us to Gar- 
field) : and thou hast changed my tvages ten times (sometimes 
Christian presidents, sometimes not). Except the God of my 
father, the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac (offered a 
living sacrifice), had been with me." Here is the unmistak- 
able fear of Jacob, that bound up in this condition, and this 
transaction, was the danger of the loss of his "inheritance." 
This memorable place of sacrifice, Abraham called by the pro- 
phetic name, Jehovah-Jireh or, the Lord will see — or provide 
(Gen., 22:1-14). 



186 

** Surely (but for this) thou hadst sent me away now empty. 
God hath seen mine affliction and the labour of my hands, and 
rebuked thee yesternight. 

And Laban (Uncle Sam) answered and said unto Jacob, 
These daughters are my daughters, and these children are my 
children, and these cattle are my cattle, and all that thou seest 
is mine : and what can I do this day unto these my daughters, 
or unto their children which they have born? Now therefore 
come thou (Jacob), let us make a covenant, I and thou; and let 
it be for a witness between me and thee. And Jacob (who 
evidently made the terms) took a stone (the one he used for a 
pillow, when he saw in his dream, the ladder to the heavens 
(Chap. 28-18), and set it up for a pillar. 

Where Jacob had his dream he set a stone for a pillar, and 
anointed it, and changed the name of the place from Luz, a 
city of Palestine, to Bethel, ' ^ of God, ' ' symbolically changing 
the place of his inheritance, and here he finds his dream com- 
ing true, after resting in mumm}^ clothes for nearly 3,700 
years. 

^ ^ And Jacob said unto his brethren, Gather stones ; and they 
took stones (states) ; and made an heap (confederation) : and 
they did eat there upon the heap (the last supper). ''Take, 
eat; this is my body. And he took the cup, and (Saturday 
night) gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying. Drink ye all 
of it. For this is my blood of the new testament, which is 
shed for many, for the remission of sins. But I say unto you, 
I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that 
day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom." 

''For where a testament is (in force), there must also of 
necessity be the death of the testator. For a testament is of 
force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all 
while the testator liveth. Whereupon neither the first testa- 
ment was dedicated without blood. (It is manifest, that with- 
out vicarious sacrifice the Jew could not inherit otherwise 
under the first testament, for God could not die. Christ died 
that we might here inherit the United States as the chosen 
people, that secured to us this heritage, if we had carried out 
our part of the covenant as our Puritan fathers drafted it and 
started us. Now, with that covenant broken by us, we are 
prophetically offered a new testament, conditioned on the vica- 
rious sacrifice of the Pope). For when Moses had spoken 
every precept to all the people according to the law, he took 
the blood of calves (though not of a "Golden Calf") and of 
goats (with horns), with (holy) water, and scarlet wool, (Car- 
dinal Gibbons) and hyssop (herb medicine, against the Pope's 



187 

mineral medicine), and sprinkled both the book (testament), 
and all the people. This is the blood of the testament which 
God hath enjoined unto you. Moreover he sprinkled with 
blood both the tabernacle (Capitol), and all the vessels of the 
minis t7^y. And almost all things are by the law purged with 
blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. It was 
therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens 
should be purified with these; but the heavenly things them- 
selves with better sacrifices than these." Hebrews, 9. 

It should be apparent, that we cannot inherit under the tes- 
tament inherited by Jacob, until they acknowledge it a valid 
testament by the sealing of the blood of Jesus Christ. As we 
are now under Egyptian or Papal law through Roosevelt and 
Taft, and Jacob was embalmed in Egypt less than 3,000 years 
ago, Jacob is" not himself, technically, legally dead, and Judge 
Taft would be compelled to so hold. In that light then we 
will be compelled to accept the Egyptian doctrine, that the 
Puritan is Jacob and enthrone him, or look the rising scourge 
of death the Pope is fastening on us so the prophets say, and 
fight him to a finish ; or if the Pope is as loyal as Gibbons says 
he is, defy God and his gibberish through '^ uneducated men," 
constantly contradicted by science, and let science show God, 
a thing or two. Yoii. will do something", and do it soon. That 
is what the last verse in the old testament means. '^And he 
shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the 
heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the 
earth with a curse. ' ' 

The inheritance coming down through the Jew nationally to 
the world, there is no hope of heaven nationally or individu- 
ally, after notice, until the heirs direct, nationally or in the 
absence of political entity, through national voidance of the 
their covenant, the people with substantial unanimity, recog- 
nize and adopt the prophetic terms, as our Colonies at- 
tempted to. 

"And I saw a neiv heaven and a new earth: for the first 
heaven (and testament) and the first earth (and testament) 
were passed away;" Rev., 21, 1. 

Thus it is declared for the last time, that the inheritance 
and blessing of Jacob, do not bind the Almighty, until the 
heirs direct, prove the signature of Jacob. 

''And (Gen., 41) it came to pass at the end of two full years, 
that Pharaoh (Taft) dreamed: and behold, he stood by the 
(Mississippi) river. And, behold, there came up out of the 
river seven well favoured kine and fat-fleshed; and they fed 
in a meadow. And, behold, seven other kind came up after 



188 

them out of the river, ill favoured and leanfleshed ; and stood 
by the other kine upon the brink of the river. And the ill 
favoured and leanfleshed kine did eat up the seven well 
favoured and fat kine. So Pharaoh awoke. And he slept and 
dreamed the second time : and, behold, seven ears of corn came 
up upon one stalk, rank and good. And, behold, seven thin 
ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them. 
And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full 
ears. And Pharoah (Taft) awoke, and behold, it was a 
dream. And it came to pass in the morning that his spirit was 
troubled; and he sent and called for all the magicians of 
Egypt (Gibbons, Eixey, Wood), and all the wise men thereof: 
(Eliot, Hadley, Prof. Fisher) and Pharaoh told them his 
dream; but there was none that could interpret them unto 
Pharaoh. Then spake the chief butler (His Imminints, Cardi- 
nal Gibbons) unto Pharaoh, saying, I do remember my faults 
this day: Pharaoh (Pharaoh-Sam, Uncle Sam) was wroth with 
his servants, and put me in ward in the captain of the guard's 
house (hung up our legislation in Congress), both me and the 
chief baker (the ^^ regular'"' doctor): And ive dreamed a 
dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each man according 
to the interpretation of his dream. And there was there with 
US a young man, an ^obrQw, servant to the captain of the 
guard ; and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams ; 
to each man according to his dream he did interpret. And it 
came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was; me he (puri- 
fied, and then) restored unto mine office, and him (the '^regu- 
lar" doctor) he hanged. Then Pharoah (Sam) sent' and 
called Joseph (the Hebrew), and they brought him 
hastily out of the dungeon: and he shaved himself (so 
he was of age, and not so callow as His Imminents 
supposed), and changed his raiment (politically), and came in 
unto Pharaoh (Sam). And Pharaoh (Sam) said unto Joseph 
(the Jew-Puritan), I have dreamed a dream, and there is none 
that can interpret it: and I have heard say of thee, that thou 
canst understand a dream to interpret it. And Joseph an- 
swered Pharaoh (Sam) saying, it is not in me: God shall give 
Pharaoh (Sam) an answer of peace. And Pharaoh (Sam) 
said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood upon the l^ank 
of the (Mississippi) river: And behold, there came up out of 
the river seven kine, fatfleshed and well favoured; and they 
fed in a meadow; And, behold, seven other kine came up after 
them, poor and very ill-favoured and leanfleshed, such as / 
never saw in all the land of Egypt (Papacy) for badness: 
And the lean (Gibbons) and the ill favoured kine did eat up 



189 

the first seven fat kine: And when they had eaten them (ap- 
propriations) up, it could not be knoivn (you saw no differ- 
ence) that they had eaten them: but they were still ill favoured, 
as at the beginning. So I awoke. And I saw in my dream, 
and, behold, seven ears came up in one stalk, full and good: 
And, behold, seven ears withered, thin, and blasted with the 
east tvind, sprung up after them: i\nd the thin ears devoured 
the seven good ears: and I told this unto the magicians; but 
there was none that could declare it to me. , 

And Joseph said unto Pharoah, The dream of Pharoah is 
one: God hath showed Pharaoh what he (God) is about to do. 
The seven good kine are seven years ; and the seven good ears 
are seven years; the dream is one (and is one). 

And the seven thin and ill-favoured kine that came up after 
them are seven years ; and the seven empty ears blasted with 
the east wind shall be seven years of famine. This is the 
thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh ; What God is about to 
do he showeth unto Pharaoh. Behold, there come seven years 
of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt : And there 
shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the 
plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine 
shall consume the land ; And the plenty shall not be known in 
the land by reason of that famine following; for it shall be 
very grievous. And for that the dream was doubled unto 
Pharaoh twice; it is because the thing is established' by God, 
and God will shortly bring it to pass. 

Now therefore let Pharoah look out a man discreet and 
wise, and set him over the land, and take up the fifth part of 
the land (approximately the Papal percentage of population) 
of Egypt in the seven plenteous years (of Roosevelt). And let 
them gather all the food of those good years that come, and 
lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh (Roosevelt) and let 
them keep food in the cities. And that food shall be for store 
to the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be 
in the land of Egypt; that the land perish not (be not cut off) 
through the famine." 

''It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task 
remaining before us, that from these honored dead we take 
increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the 
last full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve that 
these dead (Lincoln and McKinley) shall not have died in 
vain; that this Nation under God, shall have a neiv birth of 
freedom, and that Government of the people, by the people^ 
and for the people shall not perish from the earth." 

"The word that came to Jeremiah (30 Chap.) from the Lord 



190 

saying, Thus speaketh the Lord God of Israel, saying. Write 
thee all of the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book. 
For, lo, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will bring again 
the captivity (from captivity) of my people Israel and Judah 
(Uncle Sam), saith the Lord: and I will cause them to return 
to (or possess) the land that I gave to their fathers, and they 
shall possess it. And these are the words that the Lord spake 
concerning Israel and concerning Judah. 

For thus saith the Lord; We have heard a voice of trem- 
bling, of fear, and not of peace. Ask ye now, and see whether 
a man (Uncle Sam) doth travail with child? wherefore do I 
see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in 
travail, and all faces are turned into paleness? Alas ! for that 
day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of 
Jacob 's trouble ; but he shall be saved out of it. For it shall 
come to pass in that day, saith the Lord of hosts, that I will 
break his (Papal pagan) yoke from off thy neck, and will 
burst thy bonds, and strangers (Papal aliens) shall no more 
serve themselves of him : But they shall serve the Lord their 
God, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them. 
Therefore fear thou not, my servant Jacob saith the Lord ; 
neither be dismayed, Israel: for, lo, I will save thee from 
sfar (not in old Palestine), and thy seed from the land of 
their captivity: and Jacob shall return (unto me), and shall 
be in rest (right where he is), and be quiet (not removing), 
and none shall make him afraid. For / am with thee, saith the 
Lord, to save thee: though I make a full end of all nations (on 
their present political basis) whither I have scattered thee, yet 
will I not make a full end of thee (Uncle Sam) : but I will cor- 
rect thee in measure, and will not leave thee altogether unpun- 
ished. For thus saith the Lord, Thy bruise is incurable, and 
thy wound (to me) is grievous. There is none to plead thy 
cause, that thou mayest be bound up: thou hast no healing 
medicines. All thy lovers have forgotten thee; they seek thee 
not; for I have wounded thee with the wound of an enemy 
(I have used the Pope's physician whom thou hast favored, to 
wound thee), with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the mul- 
titude of thine iniquity; because thy sins were increased. 

Why criest thou for thy affliction (tuberculosis — hookworm — 
pellagra conferences) I thy sorrow is incurable for the multi- 
tude of thine iniquity : because thy sins were increased, I have 
done these things unto thee. Therefore all they that devour 
thee shall be devoured; and all thine adversaries, every one 
of them, shall go into captivity: and they that spoil (graft) 
thee shall be a spoil, and all that prey upon thee will I 



191 

give for a prey. For I will restore health unto thee, and I 
will heal thee (on this condition) of thy wounds, saith the 
Lord; because they called thee (Jacob the Puritan) an Out- 
cast, saying, This is Zion, ivho^n no man seeketh after. Thus 
saith the Lord; Behold, I will bring again the captivity of 
Jacob's tents, and have mercy on his dwelling places; and the 
city (God's throne) shall be builded upon her own heap, and 
the palace (government) shall remain after the manner (gen- 
erally — not specifically) thereof. And out of them shall pro- 
ceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and 
I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also 
glorify them, and they shall not be small. Their children also 
shall be as aforetime, and their congregation shall be estab- 
lished before me, and / will punish all that oppress them. 

And their nobles (government) shall be of themselves, and 
their governor shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will 
cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto me: 
* * * And ye shall be my people, and I will be your God. 
Behold, the ivhirlwind of the Lord goeth forth with fury, a 
continuing whirlwind: it shall fall with pain (physical and 
mental) upon the head of the wicked. The fierce anger of the 
Lord shall not return (be stayed), until he have done it, and 
nntil he have performed the intents of his heart : In the latter 
days ye shall consider it. At the same time (Chap 31), saith 
the Lord, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and 
they shall be my people. Thus saith the Lord. The people 
which were (will be) left of the sword found (will find) grace 
in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to 
rest. The Lord hath appeared of old (from afar) unto me, 
saying, Yea, I have loved thee with' an everlasting love : there- 
fore with lo\dng kindness have I drawn (afflicted) thee. Again 
I will build thee, and thou shalt be built, virgin of Israel: 
thou shalt again be adorned with thy tabrets, and shalt go 
forth in the dances of them that make merry. Thou shalt yet 
plant vines (permanent, fruitful abode) upon the mountains 
of Samaria: the planters shall plant, and shall eat them as 
conmion things. For there shall be a day, that the watchmen 
upon the mount Ephraim (fruitful) shall cry. Arise ye, and 
let us go up to Zion unto the Lord our God. For thus saith 
the Lord ; Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout among the 
chief of the nations (protestant at heart) : publish ye, praise 
ye, and say, Lord, save thy people, the remnant of Israel. 
Behold, I will bring them from (find them in) the north coun- 
try (Palestine is a south country), and gather them from 
the coasts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, 



192 

the woman with child and her that travaileth with child to- 
gether : a great company shall return (out of bondage) thither. 
They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I 
lead them : I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters 
in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble : for I am a 
father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn. Hear the word 
of the Lord, ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, 
and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep 
him, as a shepherd doth his flock. For the Lord hath redeemed 
Jacob, and ransomed him from the hand of him that ivas 
stronger than he. (The Pope claims sovereignty over more 
people than the United States.) 

Therefore they shall come and sing in the heights of Zion, 
and shall flow together to the goodness of the Lord, for wheat, 
and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and 
of the herd : and their souls shall be as a watered garden ; and 
they shall not sorrow any more at all. Then shall the virgin 
rejoice in the dance, both young men and old together : for I 
will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and 
make them rejoice from their sorrow. And I will satiate the 
soul of the priests with fatness, and my people shall be satis- 
fied with my goodness, saith the Lord. Thus saith the Lord : 
A voice was heard in Eamah (^^high place '^), lamentation, and 
bitter weeping; Eahel (ewe) weeping for her children refused 
to be comforted for her children, because they were not. Thus 
saith the Lord; Eefrain thy voice from weeping, and thine 
eyes from tears; for thy work shall be rewarded, saith the 
Lord ; and they shall come again from the land of the enemy. 
And there is (also — ^beyond) hope in thine end, saith the Lord, 
that thy children shall come again to their own border (Pales- 
tine). I have surely heard Ephraim (''fruitful") bemoaning 
himself thus; Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, 
as a bullock unaccustomed to the yoke: turn thou me, and I 
shall be turned ; for thou art the Lord my God. Surely after 
I was turned, I repented; and after that I was instructed, I 
smote upon my thigh: I was ashamed, yea, even confounded, 
because I did bear the reproach of my youth. 75 Ephraim my 
dear son? is he a pleasant child? for since I spake against him, 
I do earnestly remember him still: therefore my bowels are 
troubled for him ; I will surely have mercy upon him, saith the 
Lord. Set thee up waymarks (make progress), make thee 
high heaps : set thine heart toward the highway, even the way 
which thou (once) wentest: turn again, virgin of Israel, 
turn again to these thy cities. How long wilt thou go about, 
thou backsliding daughter? for the Lord hath created a new 



193 

thing in the earth, A woman (religion of Christ-Puritanism) 
shall compass a man (Uncle Sam). Thus saith the Lord of 
hosts, the God of Israel • As yet they shall use this speech in 
the land of Judah (praised) and in the cities thereof, when I 
shall bring again their captivity ; The Lord bless thee, habi- 
tation of justice, and mountain of holiness. And there shall 
dwell in Judah itself, and in all the cities thereof together, 
husbandmen, and they that go forth with flocks. For I have 
satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrow- 
ful soul. Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will 
soiv the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed 
of man, and with the seed of beast. And it shall come to pass, 
that like as I have watched over them, to pluck up, and to break 
down, and to throw down, and to destroy, and to afflict; so 
will I watch over them, to build, and to plant, saith the Lord. 
In those days they shall say no more. The fathers have eaten 
a sour grape, and the children's teeth are set on edge. But 
every one shall die for his own iniquity : every man that eateth 
the sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge. Behold, the 
days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant 
with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah : Not 
according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the 
day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the 
land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was 
an husband unto them, saith the Lord: But this shall be 
the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel ( Jacob- 
Puritan-L^ncle Sam) ; After those days, saith the Lord, I will 
put my law in their inward parts (legislation), and write it 
in their hearts : and will be their God, and they shall be my 
people. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, 
and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they 
shall all know me, from the least of them (in the public 
schools) unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord; for I will 
forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. 
Thus saith the Lord, which giveth the sun for a light by day, 
and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by 
night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; 
The Lord of hosts is his name: If those ordinances depart 
from l)efore me, saith the Lord, then the seed of Israel also 
shall cease from being a nation before me forever. Thus saith 
the Lord; If heaven above can be measured, and the founda- 
tions of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off 
all the seed of Israel for all they have done, saith the Lord. 
Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that the city (nation) 

1988—13 



194 

shall be built to the Lord from the tower (or Capitol) of 
Hananeel (whom God graciously gave) unto the gate of the 
corner. And the measuring line shall yet go forth over against 
it upon the hill Gareb (scabby), and shall compass about to 
Goath (lowing). And the whole valley of the dead bodies 
(Mississippi- Armageddon field), and of the ashes (of Papacy), 
and all the fields unto the brook of Kidron (turbid), unto the 
corner of the horse gate (Grecian horse-Papal immigration- 
New York) toward the east, shall be holy unto the Lord; it 
{shall not be plucked up, nor thrown down any more forever. ' '

In 1776 B. C, approximately, Jacob had his vision, his head 
pillowed on a stone (Plymouth Rock) of the ladder let down 
from heaven. And he "took the stone, that he had put for a 
pillow, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil on the top 
of it. And he called the name of that place Bethel (The house 
of God) : but the name of that city (nation) was called Luz 
(Almond tree-bitter Almonds) Gen. 28-19. ''The dwarf al- 
mond tree is cultivated for the beauty of its flowers, which 
resemble the blossoms of the peach, but are generally double." 
Luz-Bethel is in Palestina. Palestina is the "land of strang- 
ers." The United States ivas the "land of the Pilgrims," and 
Jacob's dream of the ladder communicating with heaven; his 
inheritance. ''Bethel a city of Benjamin. * * * On the 
hill just across the eastern valley, Abraham (here) pitched 
his tent on his first arrival in Palestine; and again on his 
return from Egypt (Papacy) Gen., 12:8; 13-3. Here, too, 
Jacob slept on his way to Padan-Aram, Mesopotamia of Syria ; 
Mesopotamia signifying between the rivers, called by Moses, 
"the fruitful Syria," and "It is supposed to have been the 
seat of the earthly paradise; and all geographers agree that 
here the descendents of Noah settled immediately after the 
flood." Where Jacob had his remarkable dream, during the 
worship of the golden calf, set up there by Jereboam (Roose- 
velt symbol), the prophet Hosea called it sarcastically, Beth- 
aven, the house of vanity. ' ' 

In 1776 A. D., The Declaration of American Independence, 
was the pitching of Abraham's tent, and the shadow of Jacob's 
laddei', and the erection of the pillar to mark his inheritance. 

In 1776 B. C, approximately, "Jacob dwelt in the land 
wherein his father was a stranger (a Pilgrim), in the land of 
Canaan." Gen., 37:1. Canaan signifies "low region," and 
suggests the Dutch Republic. 

In 1776 A. D., Jacob dwelt by adoption of his inheritance, 
or by pre-emption of his inheritance in the land of the Puritan 
Pilgrims ; the United States, incipient. 

"Now Israel (Gen. 37) loved Joseph more than all his chil- 
dren, because he was the son of his old age : and he made him 



196 

a coat of many colours (States). And Joseph dreamed a 
dream, and he told it his brethren : and they hated him yet the 
more. And he said unto them, Hear, I pray yon, this dream 
which I have dreamed. For, behold, we were binding sheaves 
in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood npright; 
and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeis- 
ance to my sheaf (Joseph was 17, and in 1946 we will be 170 
years old). And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed 
reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? 
And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his 
words. And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his 
brethren, and said. Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; 
and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars (the 
heavens) made obeisance to me." And Israel sent Joseph 
to find his brethren later feeding the flocks at Dothan ( signif y~ 
ing tivo wells or cisterns, or reservoirs, like those Uvo Govern- 
ment reservoirs in the rear of the Superior Bath House in 
Hot Springs, Arkansas). And the brethren seeing him com- 
ing, conspired to slay him, saying, '^Behold, this dreamer 
cometh. Come now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast 
him into some pit, and we will say. Some evil beast (like the 
Papacy) hath devoured him : and we shall see what will become 
of his dreams. And it came to pass, when Joseph was come 
unto his brethren, that they strip Joseph out of his coat, his 
coat of many colours that was on him ; And they took him and 
cast him into a pit: and the pit was empty (immigration), 
there was no water (sustenance) in it. And they sat down 
to eat bread (the United States) : and they lifted up their eyes 
and looked, and, behold, a company of Ishmaelites (Papists) 
came from Gilead (in Israel) with their camels (priests, 
''regular" doctors, sisters of mercy, sisters of charity, and 
other Jesuits) bearing spicery and halm and myrrh (the stock 
of the Egyptian doctor of that day), going to carry it down to 
Egypt (the Pope). And Judah (Eoosevelt) said unto his 
brethren. What profit is it if we slay our brother, and conceal 
his blood? Come, and let us sell him to the Ishmaelites, and let 
not our hand be upon him ; for he is our brother and our flesh. 
And his brethren were content. Then there passed by Midian- 
ites ("sons of strife," "regular" doctors) merchantmen; and 
they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph 
to the Ishmaelites (Papists) for tiventy pieces of silver: and 
they brought Joseph (the Puritan) into Egypt." In connec- 
tion with this particular payment of twenty pieces of silver; 
to show how symbolism sometimes works, I wish to try to 
connect up these twenty pieces of silver with the Ishmaelites, 



197 

who were going down into Egypt carrying Balm of Gilead, and 
other well known articles of the healing art; to connect them 
with the Roosevelt administration in 1902, and two messages 
to Congress on a National Health Department; the frantic 
interest he took in the Children's Bureau for the St. Vincent 
de Paul Society, and in the Tuberculosis Congress, where the 
Horse Doctors, with no favorite theory of vaccination to pro- 
tect, told the Papal doctors, that tuberculosis in a cow (hence 
invaccinable) was the same as tuberculosis in a man; and the 
Papists could not disprove it, left them in the position of in- 
vaccinating tuberculosis, and promoting our present plague. 
And Roosevelt got up an elaborate President's Homes Com- 
mission also, whose report, went to confirm the horse doctors, 
and was proposed to be used to show the urgent need of giving 
these Papal doctors the National Health Department, for these 
twenty pieces of silver. 

Moses was something of a politician himself, and took so 
much interest in the game, and had such admiration for ' ^ slick 
ones," that before he died, he just made a memorandum of 
some of our big deals, to have handy to show some of the cow 
boys, he had read the notice for the caucus with Gibbons, and 
was willing to take a bet on how it was coming out. I then 
match Moses twenty pieces of silver, with "Hearings before 
the subcommittee of the Committee on Indian Affairs of the 
Senate — Indian Appropriation Bill, 1905." Page 20. "Sen- 
ator Teller. I would like to hear that statement. Senator 
Bard. If you care to go into that now, I will do so. I believe, 
Mr. Chairman and gentlemen of the committee, that it is a 
very dangerous thing to let such a matter go by unnoticed, and 
I therefore feel that it is my duty to make this statement before 
this executive session of the committee. I made a memoran- 
dimi soon afterwards, so that I refer to that now; I am not 
trusting my memory at all with reference to it. I have tabu- 
lated statements here showing some twenty doubtful districts 
in the United States (twenty pieces of silver for the National 
Health Department), and the names of the members repre- 
senting such districts, the total Catholic population in each 
district, and the total Catholic vote. Mr. Scharf (a Catholic 
lobbyist) called on me and stated that he was authorized by 
his church authorities to offer a proposition to the Republican 
leaders in Congress to this effect: That he would guarantee 
these twenty weak Congressional districts to go Republican 
next election provided Congress gave the Roman Catholic 
schools (Indian) an appropriation for two years, each of 
$200,000. These statements which I am referring to were 
handed to me by Mr. E. L. Scharf at the Hotel Normandie on 



198 

the evening of March 20, 1902. He assured me over and over 
again that the church was able to secure such results. In his 
interview on the evening of March 20 he again reiterated the 
statement that the Eoman Catholics could alivays command 
a sufficient number of Catholic votes to carry any measure or 
elect any man when they were informed by the authorities of 
the church that such a result would be for the benefit of the 
church. He further stated that arrangements had already 
been arrived at by which the re-election of the member of 
Congress from one of the districts in California would be as- 
sured, and that he had, in pursuance of his promise to this 
gentleman, written to the Eoman Catholic clergymen in the 
various counties comprising that district." This Br. E. L. 
Scharf, was then by the circular connected with the Catholic 
University of Washington." 

^'And the Midianites sold him into Egypt unto Potiphar 
{belonging to the Sun), an officer of Pharaoh's (Pharaoh-Sam) 
and captain of the guard" (Koosevelt). 

Gentlemen find the Bible passe because it does not 
agree with them scientifically ; the prophets and disciples 
unlettered because, prophecy was not uttered literally, and 
because Yale and Harvard were then unknown, and conse- 
quently there was but little if any scientific thought; the Bible 
not scientifically written, full of stuff material only to the 
actors in it, and of no possible interest to us ; the immaculate 
conception a thing scientifically impossible (though politically 
performed to Queen Elizabeth, in Uncle Sam, see Luke I, 
himself a physician telling it), the people deceived in most 
part by temporary li^^pnotics, themselves for the most part 
densely ignorant; so ignorant as to require teaching by 
symbol; so credulous as to be Sun and animal worshippers, 
when as a matter of fact, the atom, and germ, are the true 
scientific theory of processional, and recessional life. I admit 
that upon such scientific reasoning, the Bible could not be 
expected to agree with modern scientific thought, built upon 
the atom accretions, and unchanging theories of six-thousand- 
years of high collar reasoning, buttressed by the very geolo- 
gical formation itself. Under such conditions, there should 
be no room on a five-foot book shelf, or in the public schools 
for a book so useless to a nation pre-eminent in science, and 
revelling in a culture which hails with delight the products of 
Yale and Harvard, ruling them under the euphonious and cul- 
tured titles, of the Big Stinck, and the Steam (Hot Air) Roller, 
These scientific gentlemen turning to the profane, which they 
readily accept and embrace, may find food for reflection in 



199 

accounts hy those of their own cult who have written upon 
the Eoman Empire, from the times of Augustus Caesar. In 
taking that great character Augustus Caesar, called in his 
youth Cains Octavius, we will not presume to ask or expect, 
that the analogy be accepted as going so far, as to prove the 
Bible x^i'ophetic in this instance; but if the analogy, between 
the Conspiracy against Paul, shall find a noticeable shade of 
response in a part of the history of the Roman Empire, and 
the United States as well, that we agree to rejoice, that again 
we find one of those strange scientific suggestions, that history 
repeats itself, and while its first enactment may have a sugges- 
tion of prophecy in the last, that in its last analysis, nothing is 
scientific which is not harnessed, materialized, and capable of 
tangible application for the good of the human race; to serve 
some great scientific, humanitarian, Eliot-ic-al purpose. For 
"The logic of all Dr. Eliot says is that he has been teaching 
medical quackery at Harvard since 1855." (Journal Am. 
Med. Ass'n). Now Dr. Eliot, on the Committee of One Hun- 
dred, is trying to put his brand of medicine in charge of a 
National Health Department for the benefit of the Catholic 
Church. 

For Julius Caesar, we put Grover Cleveland. Julius Caesar 
was born 98 years before Christ, and as we are now in the 
recessional, we take the date of our Constitution, add to it 98, 
and it brings us to Grover Cleveland's first administration. 
Cleveland's administration knocked out appropriations to 
Catholic schools. Augustus will stand for Roosevelt, and Pro- 
fessor, you will notice, that Augustus appointed the enroll- 
ment, which obliged Joseph, and the impossible virgin to go to 
Bethelem, where the impossible Christ was born. 

That Augustus succeeded Julius Caesar nineteen years be- 
fore the birth of Jesus Christ (A. M. 3955), and I now here 
unscientifically predict the second coming of Christ or his 
chosen, not to a kingdom in ruins, but the kingdom we have 
built and forfeited to him ; and that he will come approximately 
nineteen years from the beginning of the Pope's actual dem- 
onstration (1904) of his power through Roosevelt; or in 1923, 
when I further predict, that the Pope's calendar will be abol- 
ished, and the calendar of the King of the Jews will be estab- 
lished. 

Augustus (Roosevelt) was the (political) son of a Senator 
(Piatt) Caius Octavius, and of Atia, a niece of Cains Julius 
Caesar Octavanus (or Uncle Jonathan). We find, probably, 
his first name to be after his Alma Mater, and one of her 
product, "John Caius, M. D. (Latinized form of Key to 



200 

heaven), educated at Cambridge, physician successively to 
Edward YI, Mary, and Elizabeth, and*^ the author of the cele- 
brated ''Treatise on the Sweating Sickness." And his last 
name from Octa\da, sister to Augustus, first married to C. 
Marcellus (and this gentleman has a most striking history), 
and after his death to Mark Antony? His Father (National) 
havmg died ''about" 60 B. C. (Lincoln— 1865), his mother 
was married to L. Marcius Philippus (of the Philippine 
Islands), who directed the education of young Octavius. "At 
the age of sixteen he assumed the toga virilis, and was adopted 
as a son by Julius Caesar, whom he attended in his expedi- 
tion to Spain (where he shot a man in the back-San Juan). 
He became a pupil of u4ppo?c»-dorus ("The Shadower and a 
painter of the Michael Angelo variety-Papacy") of Pergamos. 
("The Romans favored-this new state as a useful ally against 
Macedonia and Syria-, meanwhile, this capital became one of 
the greatest and most magnificent cities, celebrated for its ar- 
chitectural monuments, its splendid library" — ^Vatican, etc.) 
under whom he was pursuing his studies at Appolo-nia, when 
Caesar was killed. "As he had been appointed the heir of 
the dictator, he hastened to Rome to claim his inheritance. 
Mark Antony (Hanna), who then had the chief power in Rome 
refused to deliver the property and papers of the late dictator 
(McKinley). Octavius temporized, and in the turbulent and 
critical times that ensued exhibited the prudence and astute- 
ness of a mature politician. He gained the favor of the Sen- 
ate, which gave him the command of an army which defeated 
that of Antony near Mutina (Mutiny). The 'adhesion of the 
army to his interest enabled him now to defy the authority 
of the Senate. He marched to Rome (Gibbons), was elected 
consul and formed a triumvirate with Antony and Lepidus 
(the name of an ancient patrician family of Rome. The most 
conspicuous (living) member of the family was Marcus Aemil- 
ius Lepidus, the triumvir. He was a weak, vain and avaricious 
man, destitute of any talent or any superior quality, but twice 
(in the Civil and Spanish wars) and in both times in moments 
of the utmost consequence (to us) chance (Lincoln and Mc- 
Kinley) placed the decision of affairs in his (Papal) hands). 
Against Brutus (Uncle Sam), a famous Roman patriot, feigning 
idiocy he was surnamed Brutus. He ordered the execution of 
his own sonSf who were convicted (two) of treason, and Cas- 
sius (a friend of Brutus, whose sister he married) and the 
Senate. Antony and Octavius defeated Brutus and Cassius in 
the decisive battle of Philippi (the Philippines) and, to con- 



201 

firm their power, proscribed and massacred thousands of 
their opponents in Italy (America). 

Augustus then obtained control of Italy (America) by a 
new division of the provinces (20 Scharf Congressional dis- 
tricts), but dissensions soon arose between him and Antony, 
who had command in Asia (Puritans). An open rupture was, 
however, postponed, and Antony married Octavia, the sister 
(Papacy) of his great rival. The triumvirate was renewed for 
another period of five years, during which Octavius and An- 
tony were virtually masters of the Eoman world. 

Octavius defeated Sextus (Bryan) Pompey in battle and 
was chosen consul for the second time. In the meantime An- 
tony, infatuated with passion for Cleopatra, neglected his own 
interests, and by his ill treatment of Octavia broke the only 
bond of union with his colleague. The contest for supreme 
power was decided b}^ a great naval victory which Octavius 
gained at Actium (Chicago-Harvard, Yale & Co.), after which 
he was sole master of the Roman (American) empire. He 
professed an intention to restore the republic, but he usurped 
absolute power, partly disguised under republican forms. The 
title of Augustus was conferred on him by the obsequious sen- 
ate, which retained the shadoiu of its former power. His fa- 
vorite ministers and advisers were Agrippa (Harvard), Mae- 
cenas (Yale) and ^^inius Pollio (Bonaparte). He was thrice 
married; the names of his wives were Clodia (Harvard and 
free-trade), Scribonia (the Senate and appropriations), and 
Livia Drusilla (surname, Ger-man-i-cus. ''Hoch der Kaiser, 
Meinself und gott," Dutch deformed- Gibbons). 

He had an only child, Julia (Gibbons). In 23 B. C. (1900) he 
accepted (from the Pope) the tribunitia potestas (tribunitian 
power) for life. 

His reign was remarkably pacific and properous, and the 
Augustan Age (Rooseveltian Age) was rendered the most 
brilliant in the Roman literature by the genius of Virgil (Yale 
and Prof. Fisher) and Horace (Harvard), whom the emperor 
liberally patronized. 

He was a prudent and rather popular ruler, governing men 
with artful policy, and skillfully using their passions and tal- 
ents to promote his own designs. The peace, order, and pros- 
perit}' which his subjects enjoyed imder his mild and modified 
tyranny reconciled them to the loss of their ancient liberty. 
He centralized the administration and enforced discipline in 
the armies (Big Stick). He adorned the city of Rome with 
23ublic buildings, and made such improvement in that capital 
that it was said that he found it a city of brick and left it a city 



202 

of marble. He was not happy in his domestic (political) rela- 
tions. His adopted sons, Cains (Dr. Cambridge) and Lncius 
Caesar (Yale), to whom he intended to leave the throne, died 
young. He was temperate in his' diet and moderate and frugal 
in his style of living. He had studied oratory with some suc- 
cess, but on important occasions he would never speak with- 
out careful preparation. He composed numerous tvorks in 
prose and verse on various subjects. Having designated his- 
step son Tiberius (Tiher-Tsift) as his successor, he died Aug. 
14, A. D. (1939). 

For the foregoing unaffected tribute to the late Mr. Caesar^ 
I am indebted to Mr. Abel Stevens. He may not be as profane 
as the ethics of science, I understand, will allow. If he fall 
short in this particular, like Pilate, I wash my hands of this 
just person, with the simple observation that, as a profane 
author, I have no quarrel with him. The history of Julius 
Caesar, as well, risen on the ruins of the republic, bears strik- 
ing resemblance to our great Cow-boy. 

Mr. William Jacobs, ^'referring to those remarkable men in 
history, who have compelled ^nations unaccustomed to con- 
ti*ol' to bow obedient to their will says ; Macauley observes : 'In 
this class three men stand pre-eminent. Caesar, Cromwell^ 
and Bonaparte; the highest place in this remarkable trium- 
virate belongs undoubtedly to Caesar. He united the talents 
of Bonaparte to those of Cromwell, and he possessed also what 
neither Cromwell nor Bonaparte possessed — learning, taste, 
wit, eloquence, the sentiments and manners of an accomplished 
gentleman.' " The time, I think, has come when Cromwell 
vindicated, must yield his place in this galaxy to Roosevelt, 
that it be less incongruous, for Caesar, crossing the Rubicon^ 
rode in triumph to assassination; Bonaparte, his bloody 
charger to Waterloo and St. Helena; and Roosevelt, his Big 
Stick to Rome and a like fate. 

Our scientific friends having looked through an old Cleve- 
land directory for the Mark Antony symbol, and accepting the 
profane account,. I will try to reconcile them to the Bible ac- 
count, as I find it, in Acts 22nd, the Conspiracy against Paul,, 
the Puritan. 

The Roman empire being a symbol of America, Tarsus, a 
capital city of Cicilia, a symbol of Washington, a capital of the 
province of the District of Columbia, Paul, a symbol of a Puri- 
tan; Julian, the apostate, buried at Tarsus as a symbol of 
Gamaliel, and the Pope politically buried in Washington, we 
have in the first three- verses of Acts 22nd, the symbol on all 
fours. 



203 

If indulgms;- the faintest credulity, the definition of Damas- 
cus be "activity," and accept that for ''my dear friends," the 
Catholics; ''about noon," as the sixth hour, or sixth thou- 
sandth 3^ear; the voice out of the cloud, "Saul, Saul, why per- 
secutest thou me?" as the voice of the Puritan, will remember 
that "one Ananias, a devout man according to the law (laid 
down by himself in Rome), having a good report of all the 
Jews (Catholics) which dtvelt there (in Papacy) is a good 
symbol of the pretentions of the Pope ; remember that by our 
law, like the old Roman law, it is unlawful to scourge a man 
uncondemned ; that Paul was rebuked for reviling Ananias, 
even as Roosevelt publicly in the press, rebuked J. C. Martin, 
for objecting to a Catholic or Unitarian president; that like 
Saul at the stoning of Stephen (Robert Proctor), the Pope 
"was standing by and consenting unto his death, and kept (or 
held) the raiment of them (the Protestants, Roosevelt and 
Garfield) that slew him;" that the Pharisees among the breth- 
ren represent the Protestants, and the Sadducees represent 
the Jew and Unitarian in the Cabinet, and the Scribes repre- 
sent Congress ; that for ' ' more than forty, " read the Committee 
of One Hundred; for Paul's sister's son read this writer; for 
the "chief captain," read the Pope or Cardinal Gibbons; for 
Cesarea, read territory of ours controlled by the Pope; for 
two centurians two members of the Committee of One Hun- 
dred; for Claudius Lysias, Archbishop Ireland; for Felix 
(happy), Roosevelt; for Antipatris (the foregoing) or Roose- 
velt; for Tertullus, a finely bred college man, say Professor 
Fisher, President of the Committee of One Hundred; for 
"twelve days,'"' read one hundred and twenty years, taking 
us from the Constitution to 1907; that "Touching the resur- 
rection of the dead I am called in question by you this day," 
symbolizes this National Health move as the herald of Christ's 
second coming; that Drusilla, is the symbol for the Council 
of Jewish Women aiding the Catholics to get the National 
Health Department and Children's Bureau; that "But after 
tivo years Porcius Festus (W. H. Taft) came into Felix room 
(or stead); and Felix (Roosevelt), willing to show the Jews 
a pleasure, left Paul bound;" that Caesarea, standing for Pa- 
pal territory, stands for the Hot Springs Reservation, as 
well, where the Papal doctors have complete control; that 
"more than ten days" of Taft, means approximately ten 
months; that Jerusalem stands for Washington; that Caesar 
stands for Roosevelt; Agrippa for Congress; Bernice, a Ro- 
man ecclesiastic, and for the "twelve tribes," in Chapter 24 
read the United States. 



204 

Now, I say to Yale, Harvard, American Medical Associa- 
tion, Gibbons, American Federation of Catholic Societies, 
Knights of Columbus, Eoosevelt and Taft, pushing this Na- 
tional Health Department scheme, does not this account of the 
Conspiracy against Paul, synchronize in an amazing way with 
my personal experience in fighting this Health scheme to en- 
trench the Catholic church, through its ''regular" doctor arm 
in the very structure of the Government I In a Cabinet posi- 
tion contrary to the Constitution I That being the fact, then 
the experience of Paul, indicated by him as the fight "after 
the manner of men with beasts at Esphesus," is of this very 
present fight a symbol, making this present profane history, 
a scientific endorsement of the Bible. And my scientific 
friends now have notice that their very scheme for a National 
Health Department, the Papal situation in Hot Springs, rob- 
bing the sick without mercy, the killing of Eobert Proctor, 
and my relentless persecution, through which the Pope, Anti- 
Christ, was to enter into possession of the Promised Land; 
was of Heaven, designed to be, and is become, the very avenue 
or pivot, by which Jesus Christ himself has chosen to lead 
His own from theif present Papal, Egyptian bondage, into 
that same Promised Land. Felix, Festus, and Agrippa could 
not answer Paul; no more can Eoosevelt, Taft, and Congress 
answer me. 

Eoosevelt of scientific Harvard, Taft of scientific Yale, 
have no answer against treason; neither Congress, which 
^^also was standing by and consenting," because not protest- 
ing or investigating. "For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh 
('P3,psiGj),Even for this same purpose have I raised Thee up, 
that I might show my power in thee, and that my name might 
be declared (established) throughout all the earth.'' Eom., 
9 :17. I call to my scientific friends ' attention that this saying 
is in Paul's epistle to the Eomans. 

But scientific, because profane history holds up a mirror 
to Uncle Sam of a processional and recessional so eloquent of 
Papacy, that it provokes pity for a brave, generous, and once 
opulent people. Spain in her diversity of products and their 
distribution, her metals and native wealth, is a striking pic- 
ture of our own. Her 47 provinces are a symbol of our like 
number. In a sense, we are the mother of Cuba; and in a 
sense Spain is a mother to the United States through Colum- 
bus. In the glory of her letters and universities, she gloried 
as we do now. The starting point of all Europe of the arts 
and sciences, with the Jew and Paulician or Christian alike 
generously treated, she came at last to Ferdinand and Isa- 



205 

bella, who founded the Royal power of the throne on the foun- 
dation of the Papal church. The judiciary became the prey 
of the clergy, and henceforth Spain to the credit of the 
Papacy, and her own damnation gave not only the Inquisition 
hell itself, but Ignatius Loyola, who founded the ^'Society of 
Jesus," or Jesuits, to bring not only the curse of Almighty 
God upon that fair land, but also as the "Engineer Corps of 
Hell," to lay a trail of blood to every throne in Europe, to 
take the life of Lincoln and McKinley, erect under the dome 
of the Capitol itself the marble of Marquette, his Jesuitical 
garments dripping our best national blood ; and Roosevelt and 
Taft, and Yale and Harvard strike hands with this infernal 
power and come to Congress in a treasonable compact to put 
this nation in the category of Spain. 

This policy pursued as well by the successors of Ferdinand 
and Isabella ''made Spain mighty, but only for a moment; 
then it ruined her. A marked invigoration of the state (such 
as Gibbons, through the traitor Roosevelt gave us) was the 
first and immediate consequence of the intimate coalition be- 
tween kingdom and priesthood. The whole people clung with 
reverence and enthusiasm (as we do with Roosevelt) to these 
leaders of its destinies, and in their hands religion became a 
powerful instrument for the subjugation of other peoples and 
the propagation of the Roman Catholic church. But as all 
scientific research was cut off and all independence of char- 
acter weighed down, the sources of vitality soon became dried 
up in the people, and it succumbed the moment weak kings 
happened to be placed at its head. . . Philip wished to rule 
over all Europe in order to propagate the true faith every- 
where ; and it was a saying of his that it was better not to rule 
at all than to rule over heretics. . . Under Philip Third, a 
weak and unsettled character, the decline of the kingdom be- 
came singularly rapid/' I would burn into the very soul of 
every American that part of the price we paid for striking 
Spain, the child of the Pope, in behalf of humanity, lies in the 
tomb at Canton. That he realized his peril and perceived that 
he trod the path of glory, that Lincoln went before him to 
immortal glory, you may read between the lines of his At- 
lanta speech. Too brave to openly express his fears, he left 
their seal on those few words. Through such rich blood, 
Roosevelt waded to power, the willing tool of Papacy to 
snatch from humanity the fruits of the work of Congress and 
McKinley. Insidious and veiled, but none the less true, and 
far reaching. Today, France, voicing Victor Hugo, leads the 
world for humanity. Well she says, because she knows, ''Ah, 



206 

we know you! We know the clerical party; it is an old party. 
This it is which has found for the truth those two marvellous 
supporters, ignorance and error. This it is which forbids to 
science and genius the going beyond the Missal and which 
wishes to cloister thought in dogmas. Every step which the 
intelligence of Europe has taken has been in spite of it. Its 
history is written in the history of human progress, but it is 
written on the back of the leaf. It is opposed to it all. This 
it is which caused Prinelli to be scourged for having said that 
the stars would not fall. This it is which put Campanella 
seven times to torture for saying that the number of worlds 
was infinite, and for having caught a glimpse at the secret of 
creation. This it is which persecuted Harvey for having 
proved the circulation of the blood. In the name of Jesus it 
shut up Galileo. In the name of St. Paul it imprisoned Chris- 
topher Columbus. 

To discover a law of the heavens was an impiety, to find a 
world was a heresy. This it is which anathematized Pascal in 
the name of religion, Montaigne in the name of morality, Mo- 
liere in the name of both morality and religion. For a long 
time the human conscience has revolted against you, and now 
demands of you: ''What is it that you wish of meT' For a 
long time already you have tried to put a gag upon the human 
intellect; you wish to be the masters of education, and there 
is not a poet, not an author, not a thinker, not a philosopher 
that you accept. All that has been written, found, dreamed, 
deduced, inspired, imagined, invented by genius, the treasure 
of civilization, the venerable inheritance of generations, the 
common patrimony of knowledge, you reject. There is a book 
— a book which is from one end to the other an emanation 
from above; a book which is for the whole world what the 
Koran is for Islamism ; what the Vedas are for India — a book 
which contains all human wisdom illuminated by all divine wis- 
dom — a book which the veneration of the people call The Book — 
the Bible ! Well, your censure has reached even that unheard 
of thing. Popes have proscribed the Bible. How astonish- 
ing to wise spirits ; how overpowering to simple hearts to see 
the finger of Eome placed upon the book of God! And you 
claim the liberty of teaching. Stop ! Be sincere ! Let us un- 
derstand the liberty which you claim. It is the liberty of not 
teaching. You wish us to give you the people to instruct. 
Very well. Let us see your pupils. Let us see those you have 
produced. What have you done for Italy! What have you 
done for Spain? For centuries you have kept in your hands, 
at your discretion, at your school, these two great nations, il- 



207 

lustrious among the illustrious. What have you done for 
them? I shall tell you. Thanks to you, Italy, whose name no 
man who thinks can any longer pronounce without mexpres- 
sible filial emotions — Italy, mother of genius and of nations, 
which has spread over all the universe all the most brilliant 
marvels of poetry and the arts; Italy, wliich has taught man- 
kind to read, now knows not how to read ! Yes, Italy is, of all 
the states of Europe, that where the smallest number know 
how to read. Spain, magnificently endowed Spain, which re- 
ceived from the Romans her first civilization ; from the Arabs 
her second civilization; from Providence, and in spite of you, 
a world — America — Spain thanks to you, a yoke of stupor, 
which is a yoke of degradation and decay ; Spain has lost this 
secret power which it had from the Romans ; this genius of 
art which it had from the Arabs ; this world which it had from 
God, and in exchange for all you have made it lose, it has 
received from you — the inquisition! The Inquisition, which 
certain men of the party try today to re-establish; which has 
burned on the funeral pile millions of men; the Inquisition, 
which disinterred the dead to burn them as heretics; which 
declared the children of heretics infamous and incapable of 
any public honors, excepting only those who shall have de- 
nounced their fathers; the Inquisition, which, while I speak, 
still holds in the papal library the manuscript of Galileo 
sealed under the papal signet. These are your masterpieces. 
This fire which we call Italy you have extinguished. This 
colossus that we call Spain 3^ou have undermined — the one in 
ashes, the other in ruins. This is what you have done for two 
great nations. What do you wish to do for France f Stop ! 
You have just come from Rome! I congratulate you, you 
have had fine success there. You came from gagging the 
Roman people, and now you wish to gag the French people. 
I understand. This attempt is still more fine, but take care, 
it is dangerous. France is a lion, and is still alive*" — Hugo. 

To this. Saint Peter, the patron saint of Papacy, from the 
cross of martyrdom for the witness of Jesus Christ and Paul, 
adds the awful admonitions of his second epistle, that the Pa- 
pacy and the United States in their adulterous relations may 
know the doom they are approaching in their crucifixion of 
Jesus Christ for political blood money; both to lay down 
their entity as a forfeit. 

As the Pope has usurped the functions of Jesus Christ upon 
the earth, he will now proceed from the judgment hall, Yale 
and Harvard in the name of science, the African to bear the 
cross, and upon it between two thieves; the priest on one side 



208 

and his ''regular'' doctor, crying for mercy, on the other, he 
will go through the balance of the performance which will 
bring to actual, practical, final test, his claim of infallibility. 
If he be what he claims, he can rise again, triumph over po- 
litical death, and make our hearts burn within us, as we talk 
by the way. Saying with his noble example, for whom he 
claims earthy Vicarage, ''Peter said unto him. Though / 
should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee. Likewise also 
said all the disciples. Then cometh Jesus (Vicar) with them 
unto a place called Geth-sem-a-ne (signifying '' oil-press' '), 
and said unto the disciples. Sit ye here, while I go and pray 
yonder. 

And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee 
(one of which the priest, he wished to set on his right hand, 
and the other, the "regular" doctor, he wished to set on his 
left hand in his kingdom prospective), and began to he sor- 
rowful and very heavy. Then saith he unto them. My soul is 
exceeding sorrowful, even unto death; tarry ye here and 
watch with me. And he went^-a little — farther, and fell on 
his face, and prayed, saying, my Father (Abraham) if it be 
possible, let this cup pass from me, nevertheless not as I will, 
but as thou wilt (and you will notice Matthew emphasizes the 
word "wilt"), And he cometh unto the disciples and findeth 
them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch 
with me one hour? (fifteen days) Watch and pray (watch 
comes first) that ye enter not into temptation; the spirit in- 
deed is willing, but the flesh is weak. He went away again the 
second time, and prayed, saying, my Father (Jacob), if this 
cup may not pass away from me, except / drink it, thy will be 
done." Matt., 26:35. 

But there looms a symbol, which does not require the in- 
tricacies of science or endowment of great wisdom to detect. 
A symbol all too true, over every home, and upon every heart. 
Egypt, the dawn of human wisdom, the kindergarten of the 
world university, held the children of Israel in physical bond- 
age, even as the Papacy her symbol now holds the United 
States, the children of Jacob, in bondage, political and edu- 
cational. 

In that far off day, the children of Israel listened to the 
Almighty, and herself free from plagues, even as the ortho- 
dox Jew today witnessed their visitation upon their task 
masters of Egypt. Today, grown to self sufficiency and inde- 
pendent of kindergarten methods; spurning the Mosaic law, 
reaffirmed by Jesus Christ; heedless that by that law every 
communicable disease was, and is leprosy, and made every 



209 

victim a cave dweller; reckless of that first law of nature, 
which rejected but promotes the Papacy, becomes National 
and individual suicide to us, the children of the Promised 
Land; dull to that great lesson in the kindergarten primer 
of 3,400 years ago; now, in the blaze of the historical and 
medical knowledge of Yale and Harvard, both older than the 
Hepublic; we partake with the Egyptian Papacy of the same 
plagues, and these, ''the cheap defense of nations," planted 
by Puritan hands and money, watered with Puritan tears to 
buttress God's own idea of human government, have become 
the willing tools and respectable masks of the subtilties of 
Hell itself. 

In Chapter 7 of the Exodus, that great game of subtilties, 
commenced in the Garden of Eden, had its object lesson in 
the kindergarten of Egypt, to be forever stamped on the grad- 
uate diplomas of the Israelites in the United States, the uni- 
versity of the world. Through all the annals of recorded 
time, this analogy runs "till time shall be no more." The sub- 
tilties of God, aped by the subtilties of man, to his own de- 
struction. Aaron's serpent rod, emblem, both of the smit- 
ing and subtle healing power of God, later become the Brazen 
Serpent of the wilderness to heal through faith, is seized upon 
by the "magicians and soothsayers" of Egypt, out of which 
to divert faith in God to faith in Satan, the Papacy. Mark 
you that some of the subtilties of God the "magicians" could 
match. They matched the serpent rod of Aaron, in serpents 
of their own, but in the final test "Aaron's rod sivallotved up 
their rods." A symbol of faith in God triumphant over faith 
in Papacy. A s^nnbol of the subtelty of God swallowing up 
the subtlety of the "magician," the Pope. Not the least sug- 
gestive fact is that Aaron was the first high priest of Israel, 
of the tribe of Levi, and of the doctor cult of the political 
economy of Israel, declaring what was and what was not 
leprosy, and taking his instructions from Moses. Exactly the 
position sought by the Pope for his "regular" doctors, 
through the National Health Department scheme today. 

The first plague: "Behold I will smite with the rod 
(Aaron's doctor rod) that is in mine hand upon the waters 
which are in the river (of life), and they shall be turned to 
(corrupted) blood. And the fish (people) that is in the river 
shall die (for national, adulterous relation with idolatry — 
Papacy), and the river (blood) shall stink; and the Egyptians 
(Papacy) shall loathe to drink of the water of the river (ad- 
mit the facts) that there may be (corrupted) blood through- 

1988—14 



210 

out all the land of Egypt (Papacy), both in vessels of wood 
(political), and in vessels of stone (religious). And the fish 
that was in the river died ; and the river stank, and the Egyp- 
tians could not drink of (live on) the water of the river; and 
there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt. And all 
the Egyptians (Pope, ''regular" doctor, Yale and Harvard) 
digged (with the National Health Department and Children's 
Bureau spades) round about the (political) river (Congress) 
to drink; for they could not drink of the water (political 
power) of the river (so far defeated). And seven days (sev- 
en prophetic years of Eoosevelt) were fidfilled, after that the 
Lord had smitten the river." What Aaron's serpent rod did in 
contaminating the rivers of Egypt, the magicians^ their doc- 
tors, did as well. Then Aaron's rod brought frogs on the 
land of Egypt "into thy bedchamber, and upon thy bed (doc- 
tors), and into the house of thy servants (health board), and 
upon thy people, and into thy ovens (pure food), and into thy 
kneading troughs." The magician-doctors did the same. 
Again the subtle serpent rod of Aaron, God 's doctor, was 
stretched over Egypt, and lice came on man and beast, in all 
the land of Egypt. ''Then the magicians (doctors) said unto 
Pharaoh (the Pope), This is the finger of God." Though 
themselves as our doctors, priests, sisters, etc., are parasites 
on us politically, yet like the Old Egyptian doctors, they 
could not produce the genuine article or would not brook the 
competition. 

And the Lord sent word to Pharaoh, the Pope, "Else, if 
thou wilt not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms of 
flies upon thee (of which the "regular doctors have warned 
us, and made the great scientific discovery that flies carry yel- 
low fever and other infection, when the old saying used to be 
that a season with abundance of flies was a healthy season, 
and a season with few flies was a sickly season. These scien- 
tists found not a natural condition, but a condition of curse, 
resulting from their own relations with the Papacy and the 
Government. Conditions changed, and so made on purpose 
to punish us), and upon thy servants, and upon thy people, 
and into thy houses ; and the houses of the Egyptians shall be 
full of flies, and also the ground (hatching them) whereon 
they are. And I will sever in that day the land of Goshen, 
in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be 
there; to the end that thou (Jacob and Mr. Infallible Pope) 
mayest know that I am the Lord in the midst of the earth. 
And I will put a division between my people and thy people : 
Tomorrow (within a year) shall this (division) sign be . . . 



211 

and the land was corrupted by reason of the swarm of flies." 
Now we know scientifically through Government officials, 
members O'f the American Medical Association, of which the 
United States through Colonel Doctor Gorgas is President, 
and of which Uncle Sam is himself a member, and a part of 
the Papal arm of medicine, that yellow faver, malaria, tuber- 
culosis, syphilis, and other so-called germ diseases are car- 
ried by flies, and during the past year especially, the news- 
papers and boards of health have waged war against flies. 
"And Pharaoh (Pharaoh-Congress) called for Moses and 
Aaron, and said. Go ye, sacrifice to your God in the land. 
And Moses said, It is not meet so to do; for ive shall sacrifice 
the abomination of the Egyptians to the Lord our God; lo, 
shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before 
their eyes, and will they not stone usf We will go three days' 
journey (three prophetic years — just the measure of Taft's 
term) into the wilderness (the United States), and sacrifice 
to the Lord our God, as he shall command us" (and no sort 
of figuring can save Roosevelt, Taft & V\e-us). 

Again the plague came upon the cattle. "Behold, the hand 
of the Lord is (in scourge) upon thy cattle which is in the field 
. . . there shall be a very grievous murrain" (infectious 
and fatal disease). We know that not only do our cattle 
suffer severely from foot and mouth disease, two occasions 
costing the Government some $600,000 to abate I hear, but 
through tubercular infection in cattle, carried in vaccinating 
process, the human family fall victims to tuberculosis; but to 
guard against tuberculosis in the milk itself, we vainly try to 
protect ourselves, with what is called Pasteurization, and 
which is now declared a failure, to secure the desired results, 
but does promote scurvy. 

Again: "The Lord said unto Moses and unto Aaron, Take 
to you handfuls of ashes of the furnace (of trial), and let 
Moses (God's highest representative) sprinkle it toward the 
iHeaven in the sight of Pharaoh (Pharaoh-Congress). And 
it shall become small dust in all the land of Egypt, and shall 
be a boil (infectious microbial dust) breaking forth with 
blains (postule or botch) upon man and upon beast (invac- 
cinated tuberculosis) "And the magicians (Papal doctors) 
could not stand before Moses because of the boils; for the 
boil was upon the magicians ("regular" doctors), and upon 
all the Egyptians. And the Lord said unto Moses, Rise up 
in the morning, and stand before Pharaoh (Pharaoh-Con- 
gress) and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord God of the 
Hebrews, Let my people go, that they may serve me. (Fully 



212 

divorce your Government from Papacy). For I will at this 
time send all my plagues upon thy heart (seat of life), and 
upon thy servants, and upon thy people; that thou mayest 
know that there is none like me in all the earth. For now I 
will stretch out my hand, that I may smite thee and thy people 
with pestilence; and thou shalt be cut off from the earth," 
This last sentence is literally, politically true as to the Papal 
institution in the United States, depending for its accomplish- 
ment by us. If we fail to do this, the sentence will become 
literal as to us, in the pestilence of disease, which will cut us 
off from the earth as a nation. I remind you that Mosaic 
leprosy is a communicable disease, and is a generic term, but 
the Pope's physicians have made it stand for one specific type 
of leprosy, leaving tuberculosis, syphilis and other infectious 
diseases to work their deadly contamination, under the head 
of the ^'social evil.'' With what result, the Pope's scientific 
gentleman on the Indiana State Board of Health, through the 
Pope's political influence may tell you: ** Syphilis — An in- 
fectious venereal disease of chronic course communicated 
from person to person by actual contact with discharges con- 
taining the virus or by heredity. The initial lesion at the 
point of inoculation is the hard or true chancre ; this, after a 
short period is followed by skin affections of varied form, 
sore throat, with mucous patches and swelling of the lymphatic 
glands and later by diseases of the bones, muscles, arteries and 
viscera. . . This disease is exceedingly infectious in its first 
stage and certain phases of the second stage. . . The dis- 
ease can be acquired from ^'kissing, biting, scratching, use of 
spoons, knives, forks, cups, glasses, tobacco, pipes, cigars, 
cigarettes, troches, candy, underclothing, masks, towels, 
sponges, toothbrushes, syringes, the implements used by glass 
blowers, assayers, weavers, musicians, cooks, furriers, up- 
holsterers, shoemakers, and servants." This is the disease 
(not the doctor) that is responsible for an asserted 90 per cent 
of locomotor ataxia, a large per cent of insanity, for a great 
number of still-born children, and for a heavy percentage of 
premature deaths of children, for apoplexy, paralysis and 
sudden death long after the disease is supposed to have been 
eliminated. Insurance actuaries hold that on an average 
syphilis shortens life one-third. 

^ This disease has been found not infrequently in the public 
schools and colleges. It was not many years ago^ that gonor- 
rhea was looked upon as a local inflammation which ran in a 
majority of cases a mild course ending in complete cure. To- 
day we recognize (pretty late) in gonorrhea a formidable in- 



213 

fection, which has invaded every tissue of the Iniman body and 
from which no class of society is immune. Gonorrhea is said 
to be the most ividespread and universal disease affecting the 
adult male population. Where there is double inflammation 
complete steriUfy may and often does result. Exceedingly 
painful and dangerous. Victim often suffers distinct loss of 
moral tone. Mental disturbance . . . sometimes super- 
inducing an abscess, very grave and painful, necessitating 
dana:erous operation. . . Causes gonorrheal rheumatism, 
one of the most painful diseases in medical knowledge. . . 
Ankylosis or stiffening of the affected joints, is not infre- 
quent, leaving the sufferer a permanent cripple. Causes 
gonorrheal opthamia, an exceedingly stubborn and dangerous 
affliction. In women, causes inflammation of the ovaries, the 
Fallopian tubes and the uterus, often necessitating radical 
surgery to save life of the victim. Barrenness and lifelong 
invalidism are of course the results . . . the gonococcus 
may sometimes remain quiescent . . . often for years ; the 
infected may suffer no immediate inconvenience; may con- 
sider themselves free from the infection, but that when this 
germ is transplanted to a virgin or fresh soil, it may resume 
its malignancy. The fact that many unhappy wives have 
undergone severe or fatal surgical operations, places the seal 
of truth upon this statement. A majority of these wives were 
clean and virtuous women ; they married men ' ' who had gone 
the pace;" these men brought to their wives the ''germ of de- 
bauchery," in most cases unwittingly, only to learn, too late, 
that they have ruined the woman of their choice. . . Con- 
sidered in their final aspect, these scourges are probably ben- 
evolent, since they drive men into the quiet family relation, 
the path of peace and industry/^ (What transcendent, scien- 
tific, Papal sophistical reasoning.) ''As an antidote to the 
fighting instinct in men, it is significant that they will disinte- 
grate the strongest standing army in a few years. (That is 
the reason the Pope is giving us this to subdue our fighting 
instinct.) Prostitutes unduly oppressed (and here is the 
great State of Indiana, inferentially asking liberal treatment 
of the cause they say of all this trouble), seek cover and prac- 
tice clandestine prostitution often in the midst of respectabil- 
ity. Clandestine prostitution is much more dangerous to pub- 
lic health and morals than open prostitution. . . In early 
days prostitutes were burned at the stake, drowned, scourged, 
branded, flayed and tortured in divers ways." But since the 
Pope has gone into politics and gets revenue through putting 
the "regular" doctor into. Federal and State jobs, these 



214 

guardians of the ''public health" consider that these scourges 
have become "probably benevolent, and should not as one of 
the benevolences of the church, be unduly oppressed.'' AVhat 
does St. John 8th say; "Jesus went unto the mount of Olives. 
And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and 
all the people came unto him; and he sat down and taught 
them. And the Scribes (Congressmen) and Pharisees (Pro- 
testants) brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and 
when they had set her in the midst, They say unto him. Mas- 
ter, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. Now 
Moses in the law commanded us that such should be stoned; 
but what sayest thou I This they said, tempting him, that 
they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and 
with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard 
THEM NOT. So when they continued asking -him, he lifted 
up himself .and said unto them, He that is without sin among 
you (Legislators and Protestant voters) let him first cast a stone 
at her. And they which heard it, being convicted by their own 
conscience, went out one (State) by one,beginning at the eld- 
est (the Federal) even unto the last; and Jesus was left alone, 
and the woman standing in the midst. A\nien Jesus had lifted 
up himself (from writing the above to you), and saw none but 
the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine 
accusers? hath no man condemned thee! She said, No man, 
Lord. And Jesus said unto her. Neither do I condemn thee 
(for these diseases), go, and sin no more. Then spake Jesus 
again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world; he that 
followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the 
light of life. The Pharisees therefore said unto him. Thou 
barest record of thyself; thy record is not true. Jesus an- 
swered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, 
yet my record is true. (For I prove it by your own Federal 
and State doctors.) These words spake Jesus in the treasury 
{appropriations, Indiana State Board), as he taught in the 
temple. ' ' 

"It may be taken as a medical truism (Ind. State Brd.) that 
all public prostitutes are in a condition of probable gonorrheal 
infectiousness. In view of the present moral standard of the 
race (since Papal medicine), many eminent venerealists are 
strong advocates of circumcision as a practical prophylactic 
measure against the ravages of syphillis. This meritorious 
sanitary rite (and here we have American Papal science ac- 
tually affirming the scientific fact of the Mosaic; the shepherd 
prophecy, related before science had a habitation, a name, or 
an apologist), which has stood the test for more than 5,000 



215 

years (which is before Eliot commenced teachini^ medical 
quackery at Harvard or pushed Moses, the doctor, off from his 
5 foot humanitarian and well read bookshelf) is practiced to- 
day by 15,000,000 Jews, 300,000,000 IMahomedans, by countless 
black ftien of Africa, and by thousands of Christians in all 
parts of the world (it looks asthough the Diountain was going 
to Mahomet). Circumcision is not a preventive, however, 
against gonorrhea." Yet the Vicar of Christ on earth, the 
great father of science, who fostered the discoveries of Gali- 
leo, Prinelli, Campanella, Harvey, Columbus, Bruno and a 
host of others; with all this knowledge obtainable, and known 
3,000 years before he became God, would not introduce k into 
his medical system, because if he did, it would interfere with 
his indulgences to prostitutes and hospital business, and close 
the houses of the ''Good Shepherd,'' and "The Little Sisters 
of the Poor." To be able to accept twenty-five dollars from 
a prostitute for the building of a school to educate boys and 
girls almost under the shadow of the Capitol dome, in ex- 
change for a year's indulgence of prostitution in advance, in 
which the prostitute could not sin, is too high an exercise of 
the Holy Office of Vicar of Jesus Christ to be passed up. 
''Medical observation (Ind. State Bd.) indicates that 80 per 
cent of males, between the ages of 18 and 30 years, contract 
gonorrhea." How long on that basis, before we notice that 
inside of three generations, and may be two, there will not be 
a single person in the United States who will not be rotten, 
simply on account of adulterous political affiliation with the 
Papacy. 

Whether you wish to recognize it or not, God Almighty for 
this idolatrous, adulterous relation, after waiting in vain for 
us to recognize his sovereignty, has at last come to our scien- 
tific basis, meets us on material grounds, confounds our science, 
and confronts us with utter annihilation from the earth, un- 
less we annihilate Papal, political and ecclesiastical affilia- 
tion. From a battle spiritual, it now becomes a battle material 
between the Almighty God and the Infallible Pope, and our 
country has been selected by the Almighty as the battleground 
of Armageddon. Heaven, the Promised Land, or Jacob's 
"inheritance," whatever you wish to call it, is the stake and 
already the Almighty has made the first move, and the final 
battle between powers of light and darkness is on. 

No scientific description of venereal chastisement can be 
made more lucid, than the 38th Psalm, which science now 
adopts. 

Previous to the starting of this scourge at Naples, carried 



216 

thence to Spain, France, Germany, England, Poland, Scan- 
dinavia and Eussia, taking in its mighty swath one-quarter of 
the whole population, raging for forty years and "levelling all 
distinctions of rank and fortune, assailing the king, the noble- 
man and the peasant, the pontiff, the priest and layman with 
terrible impartiality," the Papal church was bathing the West- 
ern World in blood, and setting the mile stone of Copernigk, 
Columbus, Bruno and Huss. Following that plague, mercury, 
its twin scourge and able lieutenant, is introduced to work up- 
on us insidiously, what the Inquisition did openly, before the 
science of Yale and Harvard told us the tree of life in the 
Garden of Eden of Genesis, and the tree of life in the new 
heaven of Revelation is mineral mercury ; the river of life, the 
ingrafting of the animal and its instincts upon the human; an 
ennobling of God's creation only possible in its conception, to 
that science which makes a father ^ ^ an incident ' ' and an atom 
a God. But the indignation of the Almighty against Egypt 
was not fully expressed until he brought the Locusts in all the 
coasts, and covered the land for three days (three prophetic 
years) with a darkness which was "felt." "And Moses 
stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and the Lord 
brought an east (blighting hot) wind upon the land all that 
day, and all that night; and the locusts went up over all the 
land of Egypt, and rested in all the coasts of Egypt; very 
grievous luere they; before them there were no such locusts as 
they, neither after them shall be such. 

For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the 
land was darkened (one-third of the sickness and one-third of 
the deaths every year, due to lack of a trained and harmoni- 
ous profession." — Dr. McCormack, Walking Delegate for the 
Am. Medical Assn.) ; and they did eat every herb of the land 
(put God's herbal system of medicine out of business), and 
all the fruit of the trees (symbol of revenues and strength of 
the people, trees generically being people, and specifically, be- 
ing rulers) which the hail (scourge) had left; and there re- 
mained not any green thing in the trees ("the leaves thereof 
shall be for the Healing of the nations. Because their prac- 
tice is based on minerals away from common observation, and 
God's remedies discredited) or in the herbs (driven out of 
use) of the field through all the land of Egypt. But the Lord 
hardened Pharaoh's heart (the Pope), and he would not let 
them go. And Pharaoh (Pope) said unto him. Get thee from 
me, take heed to thyself, see my face no more; for in that day 
thou seest my face thou shalt die. And Moses (Uncle Sam) 



217 

said Thou hast spoken well, I will see thy face no more. And 
the Lord said unto Moses (Uncle Sam), yet will I bring one 
plague more upon Pharaoh (Pope), and upon Egypt; after- 
wards he will let you go hence, when he shall let you go, he 
shall let you go, he shall surely thrust you out hence alto- 
gether. Speak now in the ears of the people, and let every man 
borrow of his neighbour (the Papacy) and every woman of her 
neighbour, jewels of silver (Papal Hospitals, Homes and 
Schools), and jewels of gold (Churches). And the Tjord gave 
the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians. And all the 
first-born (ecclesiastics) in the land of Egypt (the Papacy) 
shall die from the first-born of Pharaoh (Pope) that sitteth on 
his throne ((ribbons), even unto the first-born of the maid- 
servants (Mother Superior) that is behind the mill; and all 
the first-born of beasts (Papal political power). And there 
shall be a great cry throughout the land of Egypt, such as 
there was none like it, nor shall be like it any more." See 
Eev. 16 to end of the book. 

"But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog 
(Papal dog) move his tongue, against man or beast (State) ; 
that ye may hnoiu that the Lord doth put a difference between 
the Egyptians and Israel.'^ 

Some facts about the locust may interest the scientist at this 
time as a symbol of the Pope's "regular" apostolic doctor in 
medicine. Moses describes four kinds of locusts, but as he 
says after the verse reciting the actual occurrence to Old 
Egypt, to indicate the kind for us, in the symbol prophecy; 
"before the^n were no such locusts as they, neither after them 
shall be such." Now science will demonstrate that the locust 
of science is practically the same today as then; so either way 
the sentence is read it is essentially symbolic, and is proven 
by analogy. JoePs description in Chapter 2, after reiterating 
Moses, "there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any 
more after it," . . . "A fire devour eth before them; and 
behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of 
Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness (co- 
inciding with the scientific opinion of Dr. McCormack) ; yea, 
and nothing shall escape them (they shall have a monopoly). 
The appearance of them (the attitude or similitude) is as the 
appearance of horses (Grecian horses or subtle trick) ; and 
as horsemen (Pope's cavalry), so shall they run. Before their 
face (in their power) the people shall be much pained (as Dr. 
McCormack says) : all faces shall gather blackness (when the 
situation is understood). They shall run like mighty men 



218 

(which they are) ; they shall climb the wall (the political or- 
ganization of the state, in medical attendance in her institu- 
tions) like men of war (Rixey, Wood, Wyman, Gorgas, 
Stokes) ; and they shall march every one on his ways (under 
perfect control), and they shall not hreah their ranks: They 
shall run to and fro in the city (making professional calls) ; 
they shall run upon the wall (control the boards of health), 
they shall climb up like a thief" (supplanting the Almighty ^s 
medicine, taking money and giving only damage in return). 

''Be ye ashamed, ye husbandmen (Congressmen) ; howl, 
ye vinedressers (Protestant clergy), for the wheat (political 
sustenance) and for the barley (religious sustenance) ; be- 
cause the harvest of the field (for God, both political and re- 
ligious) is perished." That looks like a pretty broad hint to 
the preachers on their political duty and "religious toler- 
ance." Show me in the Bible anywhere the religious toler- 
ance, so zealously taught by Roosevelt, his understudy and 
Pie-us. ''The vine (Puritan idea) is dried up (fact), and the 
fig tree (symbol of herbal medicine) languisheth; the pome- 
granate tree, the palm (Christian church) tree also, and the 
apple tree (patriotism), even all the trees of the field (general 
decadence of God's nursery) are withered : because joy (obedi- 
ence) is tvithered away from the sons of men." 

"Even when dead they (locusts) are hurtful. The infection 
spread by their corrupting carcasses is insupportable. Suri- 
ous and Cornelius Gemma, both, mentioning a prodigious in- 
cursion of locusts in 1542, report that after their death, they 
infected the air with such a stench, that the ravens, crows, and 
other birds of prey, though hungry, yet would not come near 
their carcasses. We have ourselves experienced two years ago 
the truth of this fact; the pits where they ted been buried, 
after twenty-four hours, could not be passed. In A. D. 591, it 
is said that nearly a million of men and beasts were carried 
off in Spain by a pestilence arising from their stench." — 
Brown. 

"As locusts are commonly eaten in Palestine, and in the 
neighboring countries, there is no difficulty in supposing that 
the word acrides used by Matthew (3-4) speaking of the food 
on which John (the Baptist, the first herald of the coming of 
Christ) subsisted, might signify these insects." If we now 
turn to Revelation 9th, a recital of the last days, we will find 
in verse 3: "And there came out of the smoke (of the bottom- 
less pit) locusts upon the earth; and unto them was given 
power, as the scorpions (poisonous) of the earth have power. 
And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the 



219 

grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; 
but only those MEN which have not the seal of God in their 
foreheads. And to them it was given that they should not kill 
them, but that they should he tormented five months (nation- 
ally; approximately 42 prophetic years or a little more from 
the establishment of adulterous relation with the Government 
in Army, Navy and Civil Service) and their torment was as 
the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man (from be- 
hind; unawares)-. And in those days shall men seek death, 
and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall 
flee from them. And the shapes of the locusts were like unto 
horses prepared for battle (adverse) ; and on their heads were 
as it were crotvns like gold (Papal crown), and their faces 
were as the faces of men (they are men). And they had hair 
as the hair of women (Papal harlot)., and their teeth were as 
the teeth of lions (America is the whelp of the British lion). 
And they had breastplates (insignia of the Jewish priesthood) 
of iron (mercury) and the sound of their wings (associa- 
tion with other saints of Papacy) was as the sound of chariots 
of many horses running to battle (used as an offensive wea- 
pon). And they had a king (the Pope) over them, which is the 
angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue 
is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon'' 
(Bestroyer-VoY^e). 

Mr. ''Mede remarks, that the title Abaddon alludes to Obodas, 
the common name of the ancient monarchs of that part of 
Arabia from which Mahomet came ; and considers the passage 
as descriptive of the inundation of the Arabians or Saracens 
under Mahomet and his successors." The Papal and Mahom- 
medan powers were prophetic analogies to appear in their 
true character at about the same time, and to run about the 
same course of time, the Mohammedan "drying up" shortly 
before the extinction of the other angel from the bottomless 
pit — the Pope. "To explain Eev. 9:11, Mr. Taylor has trans- 
lated the following passage from Niebuhr (descrip. Arab. p. 
153) : "An Arab of the desert near Basra (Basorah) informed 
me of a singular comparison of the locust with other animals. 
The terrible locust of Chap. 9, of the Apocalypse not then oc- 
curring to me, I regarded this comparison as a jest of the 
Bedouin, and paid no attention to it, till it was repeated by an- 
other from Bagdad. It was thus : He compared the head of 
the locust to that of a horse (Grecian horse) ; its breast to that 
of a lion (American whelp) ; its feet to that of the camel (Egyp- 
tian-Papal-common carrier) ; its body to that of the serpent 
(the magicians and doctors' symbol, since Moses) ; its tail to 



220 

that of the scorpion (striking from behind, unawares) ; its 
horns (antennae), if I mistake not, to the lock of hair of a 
virgin (Papal harlot). The locusts of the Apocalypse, with 
the face of a man, and the hair of a woman, while the locusts 
of medical science have the face of a horse, and the hair of a 
virgin, are clearly not the locusts of Moses, or the science of 
bugs. 

Members of Congress and people familiar with modern 
Washington and the plan of the Temple of Jerusalem, may 
easily conform the Capitol Hill quadrangle to the Temple 
model. Move the Executive office to and attach it on the west 
of the Capitol at the main corridor, with its single opening to 
the east, the gate used always by the Prince, and you have 
the Holy of Holies, conforming to the Jewish idea. The Cap- 
itol building proper, = standing for ''the Holy Place," the 
Brazen Altar, before which you must pass to enter the Holy 
Place stood for the symbol of faith when erected in the form of 
a serpent, by Moses in the wilderness, to which the marble of 
Washington recently removed from the plaza, could respond 
in symbol; faith having been denied, the Washington piece 
was very properly removed. The Senate office building may 
stand for the North gate, the House office building for the 
South gate, the Congressional Library (symbol of knowledge 
scientifically applied), the East, or principal gate. I predict 
that Congress will early proceed to provide for its immediate 
use, the West or hack gate, which will stand as a symbol of 
obedience. 

We enter the Capitol building or sanctuary, and in the Holy 
place the cherubim placed one at each end of the mercy seat, 
are the two branches of Congress. The ark of the covenant 
placed exactly in the middle between the North and the South 
of the tabernacle, symbolizes our Supreme Court, in whose 
keeping in behalf of the ''chosen," was the golden pot of 
Heavenly manna; Aaron's rod, the rod of smiting and heal- 
ing ; and the tables of the covenant of ' ' inheritance ' ' and tes- 
timony; our Declaration of Independence and Constitution. 
The gate of Justice of Jerusalem was also known as the 
"Bethlehem Gate." The term "ark" itself suggests Noah 
and his remnant saved in the ark to repeople the earth. The 
one hundred and twenty years for Noah's labor in construct- 
ing the ark is very close to the age of the Constitution; was 
the age of Moses, the symbol of the Old Jewish Dispensation 
under direct Divine guidance, and the new limit put upon the 
life of man. The dove returning to Noah the second time after 
an interval of seven days (Eoosevelt's seven years), with an 



221 

Olive branch (symbol of herbal medicine and the present), 
and safely remaining after other seven days, is prophetically 
significant. 

These Cherubim had feet upon which they stood indepen- 
dent, and yet their feet were joined to each other in one con- 
tinued beaten work to the ends of the mercy seat, which cov- 
ered the ark so that they were wholly above or over it. It will 
be borne in mind that the dimensions for the building and 
furnishing of the tabernacle and the temple, were given in 
cubits, which were made up of "digits and palms.'' 

The altar of sacrifice was approached by 12 steps, symbol- 
izing our twelve original colonies, and the priests, working in 
rotation as Congressmen and Senators come into office, had 
lo particular duties to perform, which may stand for the 13 
original States. The pillars in the tabernacle were 50, which 
would take forty-eight States, the Dist. of Columbia and the 
I^'ederal Government. The two doors separating between the 
porch and the Holy Place, may stand for the short and long 
sessions of Congress, and the two priests appointed to trim 
the lamps and cleanse the altar of incense may be met in the 
Vice-President and the Speaker. 

Two-thirds of the tabernacle was allowed to the Holy Place 
or the Legislative and Judicial, and one-third to the Holy of 
Holies or the Executive. Because of the great similarity of 
the experience of Joseph & Uncle Sam and of the similarity 
yet to be demonstrated, we find ourselves symbolically, Jo- 
seph embalmed in Eg}^pt, whose bones are here delivered to 
the "children of Israel," according to contract, as follows: 
"And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him; for he had 
straitly sworn the children of Israel, saying, God will surely 
visit you; and ye shall carry up my bones away hence with 
you. And they took their journey from Succoth (booths" — 
temporary) and encamped in Etham (or Etam — "a place of 
ravenous creatures"), in the edge of the wilderness" (Bal- 
timore-Gibbons). 

The Almighty's outline of political government given to 
Moses and prophesied, is the Kingdom and Church of Jesus 
Christ. Honestly observed politically, the religion of Jesus 
Christ is a tangible political kingdom, and from it will logic- 
ally and naturally flow as results, the sound theology with 
which we have supplanted the real foundation. 

Having the votes to establish Christ's kingdom and neglect- 
ing or refusing to establish it, we are as guilty of rejection 
and crucifixion as was the Jew, and our Church service as 
much a mockery as the inscription on the cross. 



222 

Joshua's great day for Israel, we will duplicate: '^Then 
spake Joshua to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered 
up the Amorites (giant Canaanites) before the children of 
Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun (of Papacy), 
stand thou still ('^be silent") upon Gibeon (Cardinal Gib- 
bons), ^^ celebrated for its fraudulent treaty (claimed loyalty) 
with Joshua, and for Solomon's sacrifice and dream," and 
thou. Moon (' 'regular doctor") in the valley of Ajalon (now 
Yalo, a Levitical city assigned to Dan "judge," Yale, Har- 
vard & Co.). And the sun (Papacy) stood still, and the moon 
('^regular") stayed until the people had avenged themselves 
upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? 
So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not 
to go down about a whole day (prophetic year). And there 
Tvas no day like that before it or after it, that the Lord bark- 
ened unto the voice of a man : for the Lord fought for Israel. ' ' 
Joshua, 10:12. 

Thus unconscious that from the start through the 
prophets of the Lord in the Continental and later Congresses, 
to the open apostasy in Taft, the United States as the Prom- 
ised Land and '' inheritance " of Jacob, had been the burning 
symbolic theme from, Genesis to and through Eevelation of 
every prophet and evangelist, and the Master Himself; we 
the great apostate nation, started in the Puritan faith of the 
fathers, the preaching of Paul: long since outgrowing depen- 
dence on Divine help, have taken power and wisdom into our 
hands, and joining hands with the angel of the bottomless pit, 
we march hand in hand to a common political fate. 

Building this great fabric, only to fulfill Divine inspiration, 
brought at last at the zenith of our pride and power ; to save 
our loved ones from scientific putrefaction, we throw oif the 
serpent; too late to save our political entity, claimed as the 
forfeit of broken covenant ; only to enter the Temple of Jeru- 
salem, symbol of the Temple of Solomon, which the Almighty 
will soon construct from the aggregated nations of the earth, 
and lo, the race of man is run, ''time shall be no more;" and in 
the golden rays of the smiling sun of the Sabbath morning of 
Creation, we read the long heralded promise, "The meek shall 
inherit the earth." 

"But I will remove far oE from you the northern army 
(priests), and will drive him into a land barren and desolate, 
with his face toward the east sea (Rome), and his hinder part 
toward the utmost (western) sea, and his stink shall come up, 
and his ill savour shall come up, because he hath done great 



223 

things. Fear not, land; be glad and rejoice: for the Lord 
will do great things." Joel, 2:20. 

What we must suiTer in emblem of the days of purification 
of the times of Moses, we have a hint in Zechariah, 13, 8, 
*^ And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord, 
two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third 
shall be left therein." "And this shall be the plague where- 
with the Lord will smite all the people that have fought against 
Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand 
upon their feet (Leprosy of the Jewish law, infectious dis- 
eases), and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and 
their tongue shall consume away in their mouth." Zech. 14 :12. 
"Go up into Gilead, and take balm (an herbal medicine), 
virgin, the daughter (which hast become the daughter) of 
Egypt; in vain shalt thou use many medicines; for thou shalt 
not be cured." Jer. 46:11. 

And what is the comparative strength of these principal 
combatants, between the divine right of kings, and the com- 
mon right of the Almighty? And when shall the time be? 
"And the number of the army of the horsemen (of the Pope) 
were two hundred thousand thousand; and I heard the num- 
ber of them. ' ' Eev. 9 :16. ' ' I beheld till the thrones were cast 
down, and the Ancient of days did sit (as in Moses' time), 
whose garment was white (washed clean) as snow, and the hair 
of his head like the pure wool; his throne was like the fiery 
flame, and his wheels (steam rollers) as burning fire. A fiery 
stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand 
thousands ministered unto him (helped), and ten thousand 
times ten thousand stood before Mm (100,000,000, approxi- 
mately our present population) ; the judgment was set, and 
the books were opened." Dan. 7, 9:10. "I saw in the night 
visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the 
clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they 
brought him near before him. ' ' Dan. 7-13. 

"And there were voices (protests, labor, etc.), and thunders 
(threatening of thrones), and lightnings (preparations) ; and 
there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were 
upon the earth (political), so mighty an earthquake, and so 
great. ' ' Rev. 16-18. San Francisco earthquake, at the Golden 
Gate, "is the symbol for us and Messina for the Pope. Mes- 
sina, sitting on her "sickle" shaped harbor, pointing his holy- 
ness to the perilous passage between Scilla and Charybdis, 
now in the path of St. Peter's fishing institution. "And the 
angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine 
of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath 



224 

of God.'' Eev. 14:19. ''And then shall appear the sign of 
the Son of man (the star of Bethlehem recently here) in 
heaven." Matt. 24-30. At this present time we have Halley's 
comet coming our way, and suggest to his holyness to reissue 
the bull of Calixtus III of 1456, against this comet, and not to 
forget that part of the Ave Maria, which said in 1456, "Lord 
save us from the Devil, the Turk and the Comet/' The first 
recorded appearance of Halley's comet is 11 B. C. In 1066 it 
foretold the conquest of England by William the Norman. In 
1223 it foretold the death of Philip Augustus of France, so 
says superstition. Halley named the comet when royal as- 
tronomer of England, and not long after the rise of the Puri- 
tans, and the sailing of the Pilgrims. 

He prophesied its return in 76 years, within ten years of our 
Declaration of Independence, and it arrived on Christmas 
night of the year named, becoming also the Star of the Son of 
man, giving us now such double symbol. 

' ' But when ye see the abomination of desolation, spoken of 
by Daniel the prophet, standing ivhere it ought not (let him 
that readeth understand), then let them that be in Judea flee 
to the mountains." Mark. 13-14. The abomination of deso- 
lation has usually with expositors, stood for the Mohammedan 
power, but whether for that or the Papacy, or both, the sym- 
bol is true to both, for the Mohammedan power is now dis- 
placed in the ''Holy Place," by the young Turks, and the Pope 
stands in this country, where he "ought not." 

"And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and 
in the stars ; and upon the earth distress of nations, with per- 
plexity; the sea and the waves rolling." Luke 21-25. 

Eome, Sept. 28. — "Astronomer Baroni has discovered an 
enormous spot on the sun, greater than ever seen previously. ' ' 
Washington Post. Now Mars is in a new relation to the earth. 
Within a few weeks the country's telegraph service has been 
paralyzed for three hours by a new and mysterious influence. 

This season the truck farmers of Bayonne are suffering 
from locusts, marked they claim with a letter "W" on the 
wings. 

In October, the California health officers find the bubonic 
plague in the California squirrels and rats. In the same 
month of October, is discovered in Kansas, the New York 
scare of "Infantile paralysis," and the monkeys on board of 
health are experimenting on other monkeys to find a cure. 

Three hundred of these cases have been reported to the 
Massachusetts Board of Health in something like three months 
from eighty towns, one-third the number coming from Boston 



225 

and its subiirl)s. From the South comes pella^^ra, in aggra- 
vated form, and the Hook worm is a new Papal candidate for 
philanthropic millions. So the Heavens and earth confound 
science. 

''0 Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, 
avoiding profane and vain babblings and opposition of science 
falsely so called; Which some professing have erred concern- 
ing the faith." 1 Timothy, 6. 

Science, higher criticism, advance thought (not phophetic) 
and ancient wisdom, proclaim the Garden of Eden a fable. 
Themselves versed in fables, read not aright their king of 
fablers, who, wiser than his, and this generation, symbolic- 
ally paraphased the Edenic so-called fable, in his dog crossing 
the stream. With that which satisfieth, seeing the reflection 
of himself (theoretical science) dropped the meat of sub- 
stance, siezed the shadow of theory, and secured disappoint- 
ment, which is knowledge based upon fact. 

Scientific philosophic exercise of man's highest mental fac- 
ulty, will discover to him, now upon the threshold of the Sab- 
bath of Creation, the present value and application of this 
much jested fable, and the other ''Mistakes of Moses," and 
prove in practical application these scientific disturbers of the 
peace becoming much wiser in their generation, even than 
their modest claims. Adam and Eve were set in the Garden, 
with everything provided, even the choice of keeping or break- 
ing the implied covenant of faith, that such condition would be 
continued upon obedience. In essence, our first commandment. 
Eve, the spiritual or sentimental side of man, like the Papacy, 
sought by appropriating the forbidden fruit, to be equal with 
God himself, notwithstanding the penalty of death. ''And they 
were both naked the man and his wife, and were not ashamed. ' ' 
Now the serpent, like the scientists, with thought advanced 
beyond their brain capacity, into the realm of insubstantial 
theory, told Eve a subtle truth, which neither grasped. "And 
the serpent said unto the woman, ye shall not surely die (this 
is only a fable, not capable of scientific demonstration). For 
God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then jour .epes 
shall be opened,^ and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and 
evil." This scientific theory appealing to these pampered 
children of an all wise Father; pleased with the prospect of 
themselves dictating the terms of a new covenant^ ate, and r^e- 
ceived knowledge ; the same kind of .knowledge that science 
receives today; that in subtlety their theoretical sx^ence was 
outclassed, both by the Almighty al^6^ j^jie jD^iUi . Tfh 

1988-15 :noY oi ; 9l7:' 



226 

science then driven out of the Garden by science applied; 
driven to the Devil, came under his immediate dominion. In 
this commencement of the science of philosophy, chagrined 
and ^'ashamed" over its impotence and results ; stung with the 
poison of the adultery with the serpent; with fig leaved aprons 
they covered their nakedness; covered the very parts, as if 
with prophetic eye they saw the serpent's science of today 
blocking their descendants from Eden, in our very venereal 
scourge; even as science herself, today bears witness. 
^^ Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and 
thou shalt eat the herb of the field (the Edenic principle of 
life or medicine) ; In the sweat of thy face (toil) shalt thou 
eat bread, till thou return unto (the herb of) the ground; for 
out of it wast thou (living creature) taken: for dust thou art 
(and a part of the tree of life, a living thing, not a part of 
mercury or any mineral medicine, dead, inert, irritating and 
poisonous), and unto dust (nuturing and feeding the life prin- 
ciple) shalt thou return. ' ' 

Matriculated in the great school of American patriotic op- 
portunity; entered by the greatest government of earth into 
the Pope's great school of persecution and oppression; 
coached by the greatest scientific thought in this country, YaJe 
and Harvard, I beg with this diploma to lay upon the altar of 
God's humanity and justice this prediction. That by the Bible 
and near events, the infallibility of God, will be established, as 
against the infallibility of the Pope. Not in philosophic and 
sophistical arguments, scientific deductions from natural laws, 
which God may reverse at will for the purposes of our punish- 
ment; or inferential intuitions; but in a plain demonstration, 
that the blind may see, the deaf hear, the dumb talk about, and 
the paralyzed and treasonable can feel. • 

The wisdom of man in building a scientific earth in near six 
thousand years with all materials furnished, will be shown by 
the Almighty who made all the earth from nothing in six cre- 
ative days ; wrote its history in the first chapters of Genesis, 
so subtle, that all the genius, learning, and scientific accumula- 
tion of all those years, has not been able to read. Inside of six 
calendar years the "regular" Papal medical science will be 
demonstrated both foolish and criminal, and true science re- 
duced to the concrete proposition announced to Adam in the 
Garden of Eden. Faith, is knowledge, and obedience is en- 
joyment; the twain, content. 

Mr. Joseph G. Cannon, I read in Collier's Weekly, of No- 
vember 13th, 1909, this authorized, dictated paragraph, attri- 
buted to you : 



227 

' ' Get out your pencil and write this down, ' ' said he. ' ' Old 
Paul, you will recollect if you refer to his journey, finally 
struck an attitude and said: *I have been imprisoned, punished 
with stripes, met with robbers on land and have been ship- 
wrecked and have met the beast of Ephesus, but none of all 
these could discourag'e me. ' That is all. ' ' I beg, sir, to enter 
a defense for the brilliant and profound lawyer and apostle 
you have -been pleased to belittle with the title Old Paul; a 
term intensified by your observation, that he ''finally struck an 
attitude and said, etc.;" and what you finally dismiss, with 
contempt, in the three words : ' ' That is all. ' ' I will endeavor 
to impress upon your understanding, that God Almighty, an- 
ticipating some 1850 years or more ago this insolent challenge 
of his Almighty power, elected to use you, one of the *'base, 
ignoble and weak things of earth," to confound the mighty. 
To that end, that such wild words may do the perfect work of 
the Almighty, symbols are largelj^ used in Scripture, to match 
the subtleties of the Almighty against the subtle arrogance of 
ignorance, which, because it is ''base, ignoble and ignorant," 
''liftethitse^/up." 

So he has thus 1850 or more years ago prepared the sym- 
bols convenient to meet you, when he should be prepared to 
use you, when you thus speaking of Paul, should strike your 
attitude. To an orderly consideration of this important mat- 
ter, we observe, that a careful reading of the description of 
the architecture and history of ancient Corinth, makes it an 
unmistakable symbol of Washington, D. C. That Paul knew 
Corinth, and had a prophetic eye on Washington, is well at- 
tested in reading the "beast" reference of your interview. 
1 Cor., 15-32. "If after the manner of men I have fought with 
(men) beasts at Ephesus', what advantageth it me, if the dead 
rise not! let us eat and drink; for tomorrow we die. Be 
not deceived; evil communications corrupt good manners. 
Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the 
knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame." Accepting 
with you, this as a symbol or mirror of yourself, you will be 
interested to read the balance of the chapter, as a vivid por- 
trayal of events close following your implied questioning of 
Paul's veracity as a narrator of events past and now imminent. 
My Bible has this footnote subjoined to the first epistle: "The 
first epistle to the Corinthians was written from Philippi by 
Stephanas, and Fortunatus and Achaicus and Timotheus." 
Previous to this, I have written some seven communications, 
or pamphlets, on the beasts of Ephesus, to the Corinthian 
members of Congress, the first of which was written one year 



228 

ago in Hot Springs, Arkansas. The definition of the name 
Philip^ is ^' lover of horses." Hot Springs has one of the best 
and best equipped race tracks in the country, and is known as 
a '^Ponytown" to the cult, the world over. 

Stephanus, signifies ^ ' crowned, ' ' and as Robert Proctor was 
here killed in the skirmish with the beasts of Ephesus, I take 
that a reference to him. Portunatus signifies ''prosperous,'' 
which I assume to appropriate to myself. Achaicus signifies 
''belonging to Achaicus." Achaia signifies Greece, and com- 
bining with Philip, we have Grecian horse, the appellation 
given the Papacy, by Madison who reached the position I had 
once hoped to see you occupy. The personality of the Timo- 
theus symbol signifying "honoring God," is not further neces- 
sary of identification than to say it stands in a direct enough 
way to represent the Pope's "regular" doctors, who appear 
to own the Hot Springs Reservation. 

I will ground my right of reply and challenge of your atten- 
tion upon symbol Fortunatus, inasmuch as yesterday, Novem- 
ber 9th, 1909, at the office of the Superintendent of the Hot 
Springs Reservation, I gave the Federal Superintendent no- 
tice, that if the Federal Government shut the hot water off 
from the Superior Bath House or the Chancery Court of Gar- 
land County, Arkansas, took threatened steps to appoint a re- 
ceiver for the Superior Bath House, I would proceed to call 
you to the bar of public opinion and of the House for expul- 
sion or the bar of the Senate for impeachment, because of the 
charges admittedly known by the Superintendent ; of impeach- 
ment made to you against James Rudolph Garfield, then 
Secretary of the Interior for "willful violation of law on the 
Hot Springs Reservation and manslaughter. As to Garfield 
and Roosevelt, I might change the charge to murder, and ask 
you to plead to being an accessory after the fact. 

The Chancellor saw the Federal Superintendent just after I 
did, read me a lecture and rebuke from the bench on a bill not 
verified on a condition freely lied about, suffered counsel to 
lecture and lie about me in open court, and I not a party to the 
bill, and not even the pleadings settled; the court straddled 
and balked, the receivership dropped, and I was Fortunatus, 
the "prosperous." I judge the Superintendent has advised 
the "Interior" that the scheme to throw the ividow, they made 
out without a dollar, that the Interior could get possession in 
the interest of the Pope, has fizzled ; and as a hint of my im- 
peachment charges to you against Garfield reached the In- 
terior Department, I judge they of the "Interior" will recog- 
nize the amenities of official life, and advise you in advance of 



229 

these lines, what some Department people might call a threat. 
To stimulate your taste for analogy in reading the Scriptures 
and you appear to be posted a little, I will call your attention 
to the fact that wise as you have made yourself, the same 
Father inspiring ''Old Paul," the lawyer-politician, to give 
him wisdom, has even given you an erudition surpassing Paul, 
in that, you in forty words, have condensed the salient fea- 
tures of Paul's entire ministry and the whole history of the 
Great Republic. But as a prophet of Almighty God, you shine 
supreme. In the three words "That is all," you speak the 
doom of Republican Puritanism. 

The subtleties of the Almighty carried Paul's doctrine 
through the fastnesses of the mountains of Asia Minor, 
through Germany and Italy, the bloody record of Papal 
France to England, where the Paulicians in the derision which 
animates your speech, finds echo in the derisive term of Puri- 
tan. This magic word to this country over one hundred years 
ago, was the symbolic word on which we based our rights de- 
clared in Independence to all the world. From that day, you 
tell its history; "Old Paul, you will recollect, if you refer to 
his journey, finally struck an attitude and said: 'I (the Puri- 
tan) have been imprisoned, punished with stripes, met with 
robbers on land, and have been shipwrecked and have met the 
beast of Ephesus, but none of these things could discourage 
me. ' That is all. ' ' Now, if none of all these things could dis- 
courage you against this subtlety, match the subtlety of the 
blasphemous demagogue who can lick Papal miner's boots in 
the Danville District, and spit the Papal slime and venom full 
in the face of the Pilgrim Fathers. Match subtleties, and you 
win. You, Mr. Cannon, have just gotten a glimpse of what 
Paul meant by the beasts of Ephesus, and it is a fight yet to 
be made in which you will bear a conspicuous part. 

Moreover, you will yourself come to be known by your own 
derisive christenings as "Old Paul," not in derision or anger, 
but in approbation and esteem, and now yourself elect to take 
your proper place in prophecy fulfilled. 

Today you spit upon yourself, and whether you will or not, 
the inexorable subtlety of God, has already made your wis- 
dom foolishness. You are Old Paul, attitude and all. Old 
Paul was Saul ; a lawyer, with a character depicted in Saul the 
first king of the Israelites ; near which I predict you will be in 
a certain sense. Know then, Mr. Speaker Cannon, standing 
as the representative of the people in the United States, in 
second place of its power; know ye that much of the Acts of 
the Apostles is current history of the United States, written 



230 

in a symbol not beyond an acute lawyer, who can read and nn- 
derstand the subtleties of a language so apt and candid that 
its very aptness and candor furnish the satisfying argument 
of the perverse. 

True, the history is not consecutive, but is concise, which 
neither mars its truth or discredits its subtlety. 

The certain man named Ananias, of the 5th Chapter, is our 
Uncle Samuel; S'apphira, his wife, is the Papal church; you 
and Congress assisted at the wedding ceremony. The Theu- 
das of the 36th verse, is Theodore Eoosevelt, being a combina- 
tion of his first name Theodore, with his character, Judas. 
And W. H. Taft, big enough by opinion of the Supreme Court 
for two seats in a car, stands for the whole sect of the Sad- 
ducees, who do not believe in the resurrection. Read the 21st 
verse, and tell me in what other place in all the Bible the word 
*^ Senate,'^ is used. In the 37th verse Judas stands for Taft. 

Read the 105th Psalm, all of it, and ponder that Ham was 
Noah's youngest son; then tell me another place in the Bible 
where the word "Senators" is used. God Almighty, through 
your own mouth will establish your identity as "Old Paul,'' 
to teach and preach by both object lesson and word of mouth, 
through all eternity, His Almighty power, even as Paul the 
Puritan has preached it, through all time. Neither be sur- 
prised, if in your own proper person, ye preach the gospel of 
the Lord, Jesus Christ. 

Taft, the man speaking first in authority for the United 
States, and denying for them the ministry of Paul and the 
resurrection of Jesus Christ; you their second representative 
by States, like the typical Jew, not denying resurrection, but 
denying his earthly kingdom, stand today on the border line 
between time ebbing, and eternity swelling, to blindly, as his 
messenger, announce the glimpse he gave to Lincoln of his 
' ' Great Purpose. " " That is all. ' ' 

Now, Uncle Joe, God knows how you feel toward the Bible 
and to reach you apparently, he has hitched Old Paul up with 
some of the vernacular we all understand. Saul was on the 
way to Damascus, when the light shined on him, and God has 
taken the precaution to give to Damascus the significance of 
"activity." He also took the precaution to have Saul's name 
like a lot of the other lights changed; he changed his name 
to Paul, as likewise in that other luminous object lesson to 
Papacy and the world, he changed Simon (a barkening) to 
Peter (a rock). "Old Paul" was Saul, a Dam-as-cus, going to 
"activity." We change Saul's name with his destination, 
and we have Paul, a cus at "activity." Now, when we read 



231 

Damascus in the chapters, it is divided Da-mas-cus, but no- 
body pronounces it as it is divided nor follow the division in 
the lexicon of proper names, where it is dam-ask-us with an 
interrogation mark, which raises the presumption that the 
word may have a special significance in some connection. If 
we use the word for the significance of Peter's /'damnable 
heresies," it softens the rasp, but leaves the significance. 

Now God is eminently practical, more of a politician than 
most of us suspect, and not nearly so sentimentally or theo-* 
logically ethereal as very many people make him; that could 
not be, because you are a part of God and you are material. 
Neither is he mawkish or prudish, for he unhesitatingly calls 
W. H. Taft and all Unitarians liars, which no Papal priest 
would do, under present circumstances. He hates shams; that 
is one reason he loves you, would win you and teach through 
you the eternal power of truth. 

''Old Paul," as symbol for King Saul, leaves this history. 
"He reigned forty years, but exhibited to posterity a melan- 
choly example of a monarch, elevated to the summit of worldly 
granduer, who, having cast off the fear of God, gradually be- 
came the slave of jealously, duplicity, treachery, and the most 
malignant and diabolical tempers. His behaviour toward 
David shows him to have been destitute of every generous and 
noble sentiment that can dignify human nature; and it is not 
an easy task to speak with any moderation of the atrocity and 
baseness which uniformly mark it. His character is that of a 
wicked man. 'waxing worse and worse,' but while we are 
shocked at its deformity, it should be our study to profit by it, 
which we can only do by using it as a beacon to warn us, 'lest 
we also be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin." — Wat- 
son-Calmet. We never want to read that as the svmbol of 
"Old Paul" of America. 

Uncle Joe, Paul has written you a letter, it is in the Bible 
post office, and is addressed to the Ephesians. Taft denies 
Paul's Master, and a majority of the voters are with Taft, so 
the letter is to the remnant, and as I understand, you have not 
vp;- '-."i-ri (]i9 Master, you as the representative of the "rem- 
nant," must receive the letter for them. H you will read 
sketches of Ephesus, you will find that "Ephesus is supposed 
to have first invented those obscure mysterious spells and 
charms by means of which the people pretended to heal dis- 
eases and drive away evil spirits. Roosevelt fastened the 
Papal beast on Hot Springs, Uncle Joe, and the fight with 
"beasts after the manner of men at Ephesus," has been go- 
ing along a long time in Hot Springs, where everything is 



232 

shaped for the advantage of the beast, and the scheme grows 
to make Hot Springs a resort for men of money, and the great 
middle class shnt out. Like the old feudal system, Uncle Joe, 
when there were just two classes, the rich and the poor, the 
powerful and the weak, these are "marks of the beast," Joe, 
and a hotel trust and a doctor trust trading back and forth 
with and through them to control the visitor, and a livery 
trust, with all these lines running back through the doctor 
tl-ust to the Pope, is what is being worked in Hot Springs, in 
Ephesus, Uncle Joe. These schemes. Uncle Joe, throw back 
on the people at home, the diseased with venereal infection, 
to more quickly and surely wipe us off from the earth. Say, 
Joe, the best doctor in Hot Springs will charge the poor sick 
man $25.00 per month for his treatment, and give the drum- 
mer who brings him one-half of the fee, yet the great and 
good Government of Uncle Sam, will not cut the doctor to the 
$12.50, that he is satisfied with and let the poor, and the sick 
keep the $12.50 that the doctor charges to give to the drum- 
mer. People come here from better doctors than there are in 
Hot Springs, yet when they get here, it is made a part of the 
Government's duty to steer them up against and hold them to 
the doctor graft. What the doctor don't get, the city helps the 
gambler to get, and many a poor fellow between the two, and 
but for them, takes* home the disease he might have left here, 
while the doctor and his fellow grafter, the gambler, report 
business as good. 

Uncle Joe you have not met the beast of Ephesus until you 
have seen him in this Papal Hell Hole, where a grafter is a 
gentleman, and the courts are open to him to punish any man 
who stands up for the sick, and the man who earns his money 
honestly. Uncle Joe, you are not alone in being distinguished 
by the §*pirit of Jesus Christ through the pen of Paul. Every 
Congressman is especially addressed in the sense of his stew- 
ardship. As I judge one letter is for the Upper, and the other 
for the Lower house, the two letters to the Corinthians might 
be printed in the Eecord, saving some of our Papal friends 
and partners the expense of purchasing Bibles. You might 
put a foot note in the Record, Joe, that the Pope now having 
taken precedence of the Ephesians, the special letter of Paul 
to him, will be found under the head of Romans ; and eloe, if 
you will read to the House the 27th verse of the first chapter 
of Romans, you may get a glimpse of the Divine hint, that in 
Monasticism and priestly celibacy, in the unnatural use of 
each other by men thus conditioned, arose the damning blight 
and scourge of syphilis. Fastening it as an everlasting badge 



233 

of Papal monkery. ^'And likewise also the men, leavins: the 
natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward an- 
other ; men with men working that which is unseemly, and re- 
ceiving in themselves that recompense of their error which 
was meet. ' ' 

Greece, pre-eminent in ancient civilization, her remarkable 
islands including Patmos, where the ''new heaven and the new 
earth" were visioned to St. John; the home of the Democratic 
Ionian (Puritanic) race, as well as the aristocratic Dorian 
(Papal) race; the supremacy of the Federal over the inferior 
state; freedom in religious affairs; Ephesus, the principal of 
the Confederacy of the twelve Ionian cities, may stand our 
National symbol. "The seeds of dissolution were thickly 
sown in the social system of the Greeks. The rivalry between 
the Dorian and Ionian races; the turbulence and sedition 
natural to small republics; and the gradual decline of religion, 
followed by a consequent corruption of morals — rendered the 
duration of the constitution as brief as it was glorious." — 
Taylor. 

Joe, you are a high officer in the Church of Jesus Christ. 
There has been much misapprehension as to what the Church 
is, but I am persuaded that his gospel practically applied po- 
litically in the spirit of truth, as our Fathers, the Almighty's 
prophets, started us, made us the chosen people, our Pauli- 
cian or Puritian President, the symbol of Moses the lawgiver, 
with a Department of Government through which the admin- 
istration of medicine should be supervised, making it utterly 
impossible for any system of healing to employ any medium 
through which they could promote or prolong sickness and 
physical suffering to their gain. That the Congressmen are 
disciples, and the other arm of Government as well provided. 
The people then are the Church, and all mysticism is cleared 
away, and every man who is a Puritian, is a patriot and a 
Christian. That is why the Puritian tied to the Bible that he 
might worship God politically as the Children of Israel did. 
Moses was the political head of Israel, and as long as they 
were right politically, they had no superstitions, for they were 
within the law. So to remain within the law, to secure his 
''inheritance," the Puritan had to keep his chart; his Bible, 
for he had read Isaiah, 35-8; "And an highway shall be there, 
and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness (obedi- 
ence to law) ; the unclean (lawless) shall not pass over it; but 
it shall be for those; the wayfaring men (hoboes), though 
fools (not knowing enough to make a living) shall not err 
therein." Our Immortal Lincoln, for ^yq years head of the 



234 

Church of Christ on earth, recognized the same great truth; 
''Let every American, every (other) lover of liberty, every 
well-wisher to his posterity swear by the blood of the Revolu- 
tion never to violate in the least particular the laws of the 
country, and never to tolerate their violation by others (the 
Pope in the confessional forgiving crimes against our laws). 
As the patriots of 76 did to the support of the Declaration of 
Independence, so to the support of the Constitution (if you 
would keep it) and laws let every American pledge his life, 
his property, and his sacred honor. Let every man remem- 
ber that to violate the law is to trample on the blood of his 
father and to tear the charter of his own and his children's 
liberty.'' That was Lincoln's challenge to the beasts of 
Ephesus, and the "beasts" of Ephesus killed him. What 
does Paul the Puritan write to the Hebrews, the symbol or 
emblem of the Old Jewish political State-Church combina- 
tion which Christ distinctly said he had not come to disturb 
(Heb. 10-25). ''Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves to- 
gether, as the manner of some (denomination) is; but exhort- 
ing one another: (to Mosaic-Puritanism) and so much the 
more, as ye see the day (of your inheritance) approaching." 
Say Joe, the State is a church we can all agree on but the 
Papist. Nobody knows what the church is otherwise. The 
professedly spiritual "instant in prayer," cannot get to- 
gether. There are Papist, Episcopalians, Presbyterians, 
Congregationalists, Methodists, Lutherans and a lot of 
others; they all voted for Taft, preserving their denomina- 
tions ; destroyed the church, and like the prodigal, filled their 
belly with the husks, and gave the corn to the Papal swine. 

Joe, Moses demonstrated in requirement of rigid compli- 
ance with Divine law, the political and personal scientific 
economy in such observance. 

We probably mistake, if we conclude that th-e Egyptians' 
pi agues were arbitrarily sent crowded in quick succession up- 
on them; some at least, could have been the natural result of 
plain defiance over the period of the captivity, of those fixed 
};o]itical and physical laws upon which were based the laws of 
Sinai. The law of Sinai was not given to be observed on faitt 
alone, for after this demonstration in Egypt under the very 
eyes of the Jews, who observing the law of Moses remained 
immune, the law could be well designed to have been amply 
vindicated hy the demonstration. The law of Sinai was the 
law of lust, and within the domain of easy, scientific and log- 
ical demonstration. It was the law of thou shalt not, based 
on this demonstration, and love was synonymous with fear of 



235 

or respect for law. The law, statutes and ordinances of Israel 
observed, made a man holy, and secured his personal salva- 
tion from death ; observed collectively, secured national salva- 
tion from death. The difference between the people under 
Moses and under Aaron, was the difference between the gov- 
ernment of God and popular government, and abundantly dis- 
proved the sophistry that the voice of the people is the voice 
of God. Coming closer home, who will assert that the voice of 
the people in electing Taft was the voice of God, when Taft 
denies the Father in denying the Son! The Jewish nation 
wrecked itself in a trial of popular government, upon the rock 
of Sinai; upon the first three commandments, which broken, 
let down the bars to all the rest. Moses law appealed to the 
physical to save the physical, and involving the spirit of dis- 
position to observe law, saved the blood from corruption, 
v.hich maintains the life. The trinity is then thus stated. 
God, who gave life, the Son whose life incorruptible was the 
hlood or evidence of the inheritance of life, and the Holy 
Spirit, is the spirit of obedience in yoiL The spirit of self 
preservation is the Holy Spirit, and the lack of the spirit of 
self preservation, is the lack of common sense. 

The Jew lost all politically, in political idolatry, but racially 
virile in every mart of the world is the monument to Sinai. 
The priest in his temple was the administerer of the law. 
Christ came not in a new and mystical system of salvation; 
but man rejecting the ocular, scientific, physical demonstra- 
tion of the plan of salvation, and electing to turn his worship 
to the bull and the serpent, Christ's mission became in large 
part an appeal to reason to save the soul. Under the Mosaic 
law the terms soul and body seem to have been interchange- 
ably used. Christ simply became the atonement, conditioned 
on the law of Moses, all the law and the prophets hanging as 
theretofore, on love thy God, or fear his law with all thy 
strength, and thy neighbor as thyself. 

Christ demonstrated the possibilities of man begotten out- 
side of the spirit of lust, and within the observance of Mosaic 
law, to defy death. 

Men claiming the immaculate conception a fable, impossible, 
and against natural law, are, if capable of logic, confounded 
by the admitted purity of the life of Christ ; for admitting that 
purity and denying immaculate conception, they admit the 
teaching of both Moses and Christ, that within the Divine law 
as given to Moses, man is born again in the spirit of the life of 
Christ if he will, and thus Christ becomes the double symbol ; 
to justify the Mosaic law to the man who lives within it, also 



236 

to the man who denounces Christ as a liar, forcing him to ad- 
mit by the logic of the science he admits and invokes, to admit 
himself a liar. 

Every man in proportion as he has respect for and observes 
Divine (Mosaic) law, is of Divine conception; and for no other 
reason, we pay reverence to the highest examples of Divine 
conception given us; the trinity of Moses, Jesus Christ, and 
Abraham Lincoln. Moses the Divine lawgiver and demon- 
strator; Jesus the Divine illustrator and compassion giver, 
both eminently meeting in Lincoln, the Almighty's symbol to 
us, that both dispensations meet and culminate in us. When 
we rob ourselves of the superstitions and sophistries with 
which we have clouded the symbols and teachings of both dis- 
pensations, we will have become as wise as serpents and as 
harmless as doves; demonstrating the religion of Moses and 
J esus Christ like little children ; refusing to put our fingers a 
second time into the fire. The religion of the Almighty is all 
comprehended in the ^ye books of Moses. Not a book follows 
but is a history of some phase of man's rebellion and sophis- 
try. To the first chosen was given an ocular, political and 
physical demonstration in Egypt for basis for that religion. 
To the philosophers, lovers of sophistry, reasoners, theorists 
and scientists, came Jesus Christ, and upon their very plane 
of reasoning, in pure mental exposition, was given precept, 
parable and demonstration, the logic of all of which harked 
back to Moses. Truth fairly known of science but little know 
of politics and religion of that day, soon became a stranger; 
in the Middle Ages an enemy, and is today practically an out- 
cast. 

When men admitting the political and physical wisdom of 
the Mosaic law are strong enough politically to smite the fools 
who call them religious bigots or religious intolerants, he will 
be wise enough to discover that the religion of Jesus Christ is 
simply another name for the possession of that common sense 
which aims to secure to himself and his, the enjoyment of pro- 
longed physical existence; the only heaven ever promised 
t]iem. The time is fast approaching when a man denying the 
religion of Moses, Jesus Christ and Abraham Lincoln, will 
logically declare himself without sufficient sense to discern 
earthly, physical and political proof and advantage. No fact 
was ever more plainly set out physically and logically than 
the religion of Moses and Jesus Christ, and no logic and dem- 
onstration ever more plainly complemented. No inheritance 
ever left by a testator with a plainer description or more 
minute direction for entering into and retaining possession; 



237 

no covenant ever made more profitable to the heir. Plainly 
presented for centuries, not as a speculative, theoretical, 
ethereal or otherwise intangible, but a purely business propo- 
sition such as you enter into every day. With the plain evi- 
dence of acceptance or rejection written in: ''by their fruits 
ye shall know them," the sententious conclusion as fully ex- 
cludes sophistry, theory, speculation, dogma, and uncertainty, 
as it would from any other earthly contract. A Christian 
then is simply a man with enough common sense to observe the 
law which protects him against himself and his neighbor; 
which is loving thy neighbor as thy self. 

The oft recurring, I am thy God which brought thee out of 
Egypt, and the house of bondage, is not the arrogant self 
praise of the Almighty, but an appeal to the reason of the 
nation which saw in Egypt the perversion of Mosaic law and 
its scientific results, and as well, an appeal to the reason of 
all time. 

What more antithetic of this than the Eoman Papacy? Be- 
side the murderer under the noose stands the Papal priest 
claiming the keys of heaven and holds the cross before his own 
fruit as a representative of the serpent. The prostitute and 
saloonist pay the Roman priesthood tribute for absolution 
represented in the key to heaven, and the political influence 
of the Church in return upholds them as a necessary political 
evil. 

The life line of the murderer, the thief, the prostitute and 
the liquor man all run to the Pope, the Antichrist, and the in- 
^^entor of the Devilish expedients for extermination of the 
Jew, through whom runs the line of the sceptre of David, and 
the key to the heavenly "inheritance." The Woman's Chris- 
tian Temperance Union, the Anti-Saloon League and others 
are hacking away at the rattles of this serpent, when Gen. 
8-15 commands: ''It (the woman's seed) shall bruise thy 
head/' The heart of the serpent is under his throat, and 
very near his head, and when you squeeze or cut otf his head, 
you kill him and his rattles, too. A snake deprived of his rat- 
tles may grow new ones but to grow a new head is an extreme- 
ly subtle trick even for the Papacy. The W. C. T. U., the Anti- 
Saloon League and the Layman's Missionary Movement, 
might run no chances and make a happy mistake if they con- 
ceive the day of Judgment has dawned, that we are to be 
judged for the deeds done in the body, and that Moses has 
ordered the children of Israel to stop playing with the rattles 
and move up to the business office of the serpent, and smash 
him on the head. 



238 

This is a world wide matter Joe, and the spirit of Christ 
by the pen of Paul, has written to fair France in the epistle 
to the Galatians. And Joe yon will notice in the 11th verse of 
the 2nd chapter, that Panl told France she would be doing, 
just what she is doing today; "but when Peter (the Papacy) 
was come to Antioch (the place where the disciples or Puri- 
tans were first called Christians), / (Paul the Puritan) with> 
stood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. ' ' 

I have heretofore told you, Joe, that Philip signified lover 
of horses, a^d was a symbol of Hot Springs, Arkansas. You 
will find in the House post office Bible, a letter from the Spirit 
of God, by the hand of Paul, to the Hot Springers, under the 
name of the Philippians ; this letter, Joe, is to be delivered by 
the hand of the House or Senate or jointly. And say, Joe, if 
you will examine the record of the Garland Chancery Court, 
in a case in which my sister was to be totally stripped and 
robbed, and I was to be made the ultimate party at fault, en- 
quire about a certain proceeding therein for a receiver, and 
then read the 12th and 13th verses of the first chapter of 
Fhillipians, where Paul tells the Hot Springers, you will see 
how Paul jokes the court, the Interior Department and the 
would be robbers. "But I would ye (Hot Springers) 
should understand, brethren, that the things which happened 
unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the 
gospel. So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the 
palace (Interior Department and Taft's office), and in all 
other places." 

And, Joe, the 30th verse refers to the clipping in Collier's: 
"Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear 
to be in me." 

The Spirit of Christ by the pen of Paul has written a letter 
to our Mother country, under the name of Colossians ; see 1st 
chapter and 4th verse: "Since we heard of your faith in 
Christ Jesus, and of the love tvhich ye have to all the saints" 
(your Puritan children). 

Joe, Tyre is also a symbol for England. Look into her 
arms, the Lion, the Unicorn, the Scottish Lion, the Harp of 
David and Erin, and the six Colonial Lions, and you have the 
ten lost tribes of Israel, in the Anglo Saxon sense. Israel 
will be reunited; probably first through alliance; followed by 
incorporation of her by us. You remember Hiram of Tyre 
furnished material and workmen for building the temple, and 
they made an alliance? Then, Joe, England becomes sym- 
bolical Benjamin, "son of my (Jacob's) right hand," politic- 
ally. Joshua (21), gives Benjamin four cities, England, Ire- 



239 

land, Scotland and Wales. Joe, Samaria was the Capital 
city of the ten revolted tribes from the house of David; the 
earthly line of inheritance. Samaria was l)uilt by Omri (sig- 
nifying- 'Mike a sheaf," like the sheaf eJoseph dreamed about 
— but built by the Pope), king of Israel who reigned seven 
years (just Eoosevelt's term; Roosevelt was trying to finish 
it and move the Pope in). He (the Pope — king of Interna- 
tional Israel — usurper) bought the hill of Samaria (medical 
monopoly expectant), of Shemer (sChemer-Roosevelt) for 
two talents of silver (Roosevelt and Taft). 

It took its^ame of Samaria from Shemer (sChemer-Pope), 
the owner of the hill. It was rebuilt by Gabinius, and named 
Gabiniana (Gab-Gab-Gab — "regular doctor"), probably from 
Gabbai, ''a collector of tribute." Samaria and Samaritans 
are interesting reading, and a closer comparison of Jewish 
and Samaritan texts of the books of Moses, I believe, will in 
the future interest scholars and the world. In a greater or 
international sense then, Europe where the Pope has sway 
in his medical arm, is the lost ten tribes of Israel with Eng- 
land at their head. You remember in Luke (10) when the 
^'certain" man Roosevelt for Uncle Sam, journeyed from 
Jerusalem (patriotism) to Jericho (Gibbons), and fell among 
thieves who left him half dead, the priest (protestant) and 
Levite (Congress) passed by without notice, but a "certain" 
Samaritan bound up his wounds, poured in oil and wine, set 
him on his own (doctor) beast and brought him to an inn 
(Papal hospital) and gave the host (of heaven — the Pope) 
tivo pence (Roosevelt & Taft). 

And Joe, the letters of Paul to the Thessalonians, are to 
the Young Turks and new Turkey. It don't look so much as 
though Christ's kingdom was a spiritual kingdom, does it? 

Now, Joe, let us read Ephesians, 6-12. "For we (Puritan 
Ephesians) wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against 
principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the dark- 
ness (ignorance) of this world, against spiritual wickedness 
(treason) in high places." Now remember Joe, a mountain is 
a "high" iilace and a symbol of a nation, and that puts us all 
in the same boat. The potter (the voter) fashions the clay 
(the public man), making one vessel unto honor and another 
unto dishonor. Can the potter (the voter) censure the clay 
(the Congressman or President) he has dedicated unto dis- 
Iionor? 

Joe, it begins to look to me as though God gave us a 
prophet. You remember Old Abe said when we were getting 
into this same kind of trouble before, "A house divided 



240 

against itself cannot stand/' and on that text the Eepublican 
party got its life blood, and in that sentiment he redeemed 
this country under God. He got that out of the Bible, only 
the Bible says, Matt. 12-24: '^And Jesus knew their thoughts, 
and said unto them, every kingdom divided against itself is 
brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against 
itself shall not stand." Now, we know why his keynote was, 
Save the Union ; now we know why God named him Abraham. 
God spoke to Abraham in covenant to Israel. Now, Joe, we 
begin to see how* the classic of Gettysburg belongs in the 
Bible, the handbook and chart for all eternity for the chosen 
people; for after Abe's fight, ''after the manner of men with 
the beast (of Popery) at Ephesus, he wanted us to rededicate 
ourselves to that great church of which he was the head on 
earth; that great Puritanic principle for which the boys in 
blue had died. The people never understood the war, but 
Lincoln did, and the beast at Ephesus took his life and de- 
feated his great and prophetic purpose. Joe, you remember 
just across the line from your district in a little temple of 
truth, away back in 1856 ; Old Abe caught a Papal priest put- 
ting up perjury to ruin a man in the interest of the Papal 
church, promising to wash away the perjury in absolution, be- 
cause Christ had said to Peter, ''What you shall bind on earth 
shall be bound in heaven; and what you shall loose on earth 
shall be loosed in heaven." Then you remember our Abra- 
ham, then almost as obscure as the little temple in which he 
there served God, would not let that guilty priest go from the 
clutches of the law until Lincoln had there, in the presence 
of truth, dedicated himself to truth ; to you and to me, saying : 
' ' That while an Almighty ruling Providence permitted him to 
see the light of day and breathe the pure air of Heaven, and 
so long as he had a brain to think, a heart to feel and a hand 
to execute His will, he would devote them all against that in- 
fernal power that was the enemy of all free government and 
of the free institutions of his country, that polluted the Tem- 
ples of Justice with its presence and attempted to use the 
machinery of the laiv to oppress and crush the innocent, and 
helpless.'' Within about eight years afterward, within which 
almost everybody but God fought him, he gave us the Swan 
Song of Gettysburg, and within a year thereafter he said to 
the 164th Ohio : "I say this in order to impress you, if you are 
not already impressed, that no small matter should divert us 
from our great purpose. The real issue in this country is the 
eternal struggle between these tivo principles — right and 
^rong — throughout the world. They are the two principles 



241 

that have stood face to face from the beginning of time, and 
will ever continue to struggle. The one is the common right 
of humanity, and the other the divine right of kings. It is the 
same principle in whatever shape it develops itself.'' Eight 
months thereafter, a ^' small matter,'' a Catholic bullet di- 
verted his ''Great Purpose," and again the cup of Almighty 
indignation and wrath is filled. Eight years to complete the 
world's trinity; Moses, Jesus Christ and Abraham Lincoln. 
Not a churchman as we call it, lest the world think the Church 
can dispense Divine favor, and so be prostituted. Yet the 
Church shows with pride a little old black pew where Lincoln 
sat. 

Uncle Joe, Paul's letter to Timothy, is to those persons the 
fruit of intermarriage between the Jews and Gentiles. Timo- 
thv's father was a Gentile and his mother a Jewess, who had 
educated her son with great care in her own religion, and Paul 
addressed him as ''my own son in the faith." But it tends 
also to commercial and political intermarriage of the Jew. or 
Gentile, with the Papist, which is a lapse to idolatry and for- 
bidden, is but the echo of that law of Old Israel, the burden of 
all Old Testament, historic and prophetic wrath, where th'^ 
children of Israel individually intermarried with those of 
idolatrous nations, or by association of their capital or busi 
ness enterprise, in any way promoted the interest of idolatry. 

To-day, the law of Old Israel would as surely preclude, and 
with as great penalty, the Jews from having banking affiliation 
with the Pope's bankers, as in the days of old for those laws' 
are still inviolate. One of the earliest of Christ's assurances 
is, "Think not that I am come to destroy the law or the 
prophets; I am not come to destroy ^ but to fulfill." It was not 
promised that at the time that Christ should come he would 
set up an immediate earthly kingdom. He only sowed the 
Puritan seed, to spring up here and for a time flourished and 
grew up, and when the sun of Papacy came up upon it, it 
withered away. He said. My kingdom is not of this world, but 
he did not say that his kingdom would not be ready until the 
six creative days were finished. 

As the Almighty took from Adam until this present time 
for his six creative days to hallow the seventh with a people 
fit in constancy to live with those of Old Israel who died with- 
in the promise of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob ; so they of the 
Jews are justified, having the immutable promise of the Al- 
mighty to an everlasting inheritance, hedged only by the law 
of the Old Testament, and Jesus Christ came that the Gentiles 

1988—16 



' 242 

and the Jews who had intermarried idolatrously or in lapse 
observance of the Mosaic law, might have redemption through 
the blood of a higher symbol than that of the Old Testament ; 
an earnest in his own son, of that great love of truth, that 
such covenant should not fail on his part. 

The trouble with a world grown old and wise in its own con- 
ceit, is that by a system of theology perverting and abandon- 
ing the law and the prophets of old ; contending for factional 
sects, lifting themselves up in earthly wisdom ; the Jew, from 
the day of Calvary, has been lashed up and down the earth, 
because, forsooth, their fathers, divided no more on the Holy 
Word than the Gentiles themselves today, crucified according 
to prophecy, the body of the Master, whose short ministry of 
parable and demonstration of the earthly kingdom the Gen- 
tiles were themselves destined to build; parkbles and demon- 
stration of the principles of government almost wholly lost 
on the Gentile world, crucifying him daily in spirit for near 
nineteen hundred years. 

Never recognizing in Abraham, Isaac and Jacob of Old Is- 
rael, the Puritan of the new, and blaming the stubbornly con- 
stant Jew for the defeat of an earthly kingdom, they them- 
selves are ever ready to trade to the Pope for Papal votes. 

Is it strange that between the perversity of the Jew and the 
Protestant, the wily old serpent of the Vatican, learning in 
the Garden of Eden the secrets of eternal life; reading the 
prophecies to his own profit ; suits his theology and blandish- 
ments to those of plain and simple habit, and much in the open 
air, addresses the efforts of his lieutenants to political and 
business affiliation with the Jew and the Gentile of more se- 
dentary habit and more luxurious life, and changing the whole 
system of medicine of Old Israel, has through the poisoning 
medical arm of his apostate pagan priesthood and their polit- 
ical and business subtlety and cunning, secured the Executive 
Mansion through murder; held that citadel for eight years, 
browbeating Congress, and through a subtle employment of 
the press, so made Congress which liaied Eoosevelt; itself the 
traitor and the Jesuit Eoosevelt, the saint. 

And that Congress, unable to stem the fatuous, foolish wor- 
ship by the people of this child of perverse and criminal in- 
stinct, fired with an insane ambition which reeked not blood, 
held his Papal wolf at bay to save the Puritan he would de- 
stroy. Yet Congress could not tell the people the truth and 
itself live and temporizing was greater patriotism than dis- 
solution. That men in Congress, of purest patriotism and 
keenest sense of public duty, were gagged by a public opinion 



243 

unworthily bestowed, and sat almost impotent to watch the 
devastating wave of a boy's government; a child of Hell lent 
to the subtleties of a Gibbons, used through a Bonaparte, to 
chase the Standard Oil to a $29,000,000 fine, without liasis, 
while the criminal hand of the Jesuit in a ''rich man's panic," 
helped Morgan, the Pope's banker and personal friend, to a 
pinched and captured rival. Thus Jew and Gentile alike are 
made the cheap convenience of Hell turned loose. And Taft, 
the big echo of a small and traitorous Eoosevelt, talks glibly 
of Puritan intolerance where liberty was born and returns to 
Washington to address this band of Papal assassins, robbers, 
whoremongers, and aliens as ''my friends," and attempts to 
deliver to them your inheritance and mine. Where is Jesus 
Christ predicted to reign in person? What is promised? A 
Branch out of Israel. Which Israel? Old or New? Isaiah 
11:1, says: "And there shall come forth a rod (a ruler) out 
of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his 
roots." This is definite prophetically, but not personally. 
What Branch, the first or last? Jeremiah speaks of this 
Branch in 23-5. Daniel 11-7, also speaks of it. Zechariah 3-8, 
calls it a Branch; also in 6-12. Luke lst-78 speaks of the 
Branch from on high hath visited us. That evidently refers 
to Jesus Christ, but leaves a fair inference that there can be 
another Branch ; yet Christ promising to come again, to reign, 
though not specifying whether in person or in spirit, might 
come in power in either, and evidently is greatly needed. 

Christ said in like manner, as you see me go so shall I re- 
turn. He went in glory, power and mystery; if in like manner 
he send a Branch the promise is fulfilled. John sees him 
coming riding on a cloud ; a cloud of what ? They spoke com- 
monly of a cloud of witnesses. 

Uncle Joe, the Almighty by the hand of Paul wrote to Titus. 
Who was Titus? WTio is Titus? Titus signifies "protected." 
Watson says: "It is remarkable that Titus is not mentioned 
in the Acts of the Apostles. The few particulars which are 
known of him are collected from the epistles of St. Paul. 

"We learn from them that he was a Greek (Gal. 2:3), but 
it is not recorded to what city or country he belonged. From 
St. Paul calling him 'his own son according to the common 
faith,' Titus, 1:4, it is considered that he was converted by 
him; but we have no account of the time or place of his con- 
version. He is first mentioned as going from Antioch to the 
Council at Jerusalem, A. D. 49 (Gal. 2:1) ; and upon that oc- 
casion St. Paul says that he would not allow him to be circum- 
cised because he was born of Gentile parents. St. Paul sent 



244 - 

Mm from Ephesus with liis first epistle to the Corinthians, 
and with a commission to inquire into the state of the church 
at Corinth; and he sent him thither again from Macedonia 
with his second epistle, and to forivard the collections for the 
saints in Judea. From this time we hear nothing of Titus 
till he was left by St. Paul in Crete, after his first imprison- 
ment at Rome Ho set in order the things that ivere wanting, 
and to ordain elders in every city.' '' But, Joe, Paul wrote 
in prophetic spirit, and ordained Titus, whom nobody appears 
to know, to be the ''First Bishop of the Church of the Cre- 
tians." Fourteen years before this letter is dated, Titus 
(Flavins) became Roman Emperor, but was not reigning at 
the date of the letter, but I believe that Crete was then a 
Roman province. We then have the letter to the Roman Em- 
peror, made first bishop of the church of the Cretians, inside 
of his dominions. Now Paul says in the 12th verse, ''One of 
themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, the Cretians 
are always liars, evil beasts, slow bellies. This witness is 
true," which brings us face to face with our old friend the 
Pope. In the first chapter and second verse, Paul says: "In 
hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised he- 
fore the world began; but hath in due times (prophetic times) 
manifested his word through preaching, which is committed 
unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour ; To 
Titus, mine own son after the common faith; Grace, mercy 
and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ 
our Saviour. For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou 
shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain 
elders in every city, as I had appointed thee." Mark the in- 
consistencies, the scientific inconsistencies of these bald state- 
ments. '-'God, that cannot lie promised before the world be- 
gan.'^ Here Paul makes God who cannot lie, promise eternal 
life to people on the earth before the world began. Then in 
the 3rd verse, Paul makes "God our Saviour," and in the 
next verse anoints Titus in the name of "the Lord Jesus 
Christ our Saviour." Then he says, "for this cause left I 
thee in Crete." This it appears would leave Titus somewhat 
in doubt and while it shows apparently a lack of explictness 
in Scripture, it can show how rich they can be made in symbol. 
Here was Titus apparently ordained by a liar, on the author- 
ity of a liar, to lie, to notorious liars. And these fellows fol- 
lowers landed on Plymouth Rock with their lying doctrines, 
under Paul the liar and commenced to lie. Then what did 
these lying scoundrels do ! They got right down on their 
knees and blasphemously dedicated themselves and this 



245 

country to their lying God on the authority of Paul the liar. 
And called themselves Pilgrims, travelers to visit Holy Places 
and these scoundrels came here to stay; brought all their ly- 
ing paraphernalia with them. Now these lying scoundrels 
before they left England tried to run the English govern- 
ment. They didn't object to the government faith, and why 
should these liars! Faith Avith liars is only a synonym for 
bluff. But they had a slick scheme. They aimed through 
their lying and deceitful church to control the state, and as 
Taf t complained became ' ' intolerant ' ' if things didn 't go their 
lying way. Taft was right there. They opened public schools 
and their lying Bible was read in it, and they started Yale 
and Harvard and said they were the cheap defense of nations 
and commenced their lying right in those two magnificent 
temples of science and projected theories; and do you know, 
Joe, Yale and Harvard caught right on and are lying to beat 
anybody. 

They had town meetings where their blasphemous doctrines 
were freely uttered against the "public health," and they 
even started churches to trap the unwary with their blas- 
phemous, out of date unscientific lies, and supported liars to 
preach such lies as Paul wrote Titus. Would you want a 
child of mine brought up in such an atmosphere as that? 
When they thought they were strong enough they got up a 
rebellion against everybody, and whipped England and they 
let Spain know that if Columbus discovered this country for 
the Pope then was the time to come and get it. And they got 
up a blasphemous Declaration of Independence; they lied to 
all the world and gave false reasons for whipping England, 
and they lied when they said they had a decent respect to the 
opinions of others. And they lied again when they said real 
live men had certain inalienable rig Jits for you know it is a 
lie that under a Puritan government, a man has a right to 
Life (Robert Proctor didn't) and Liberty. And you know 
that the only right these lying blasphemous scoundrels give 
him is the "pursuit of happiness." Then they lied to us when 
they told us they were going to "secure" the right of "pur- 
suing happiness." And they got a Government against the 
will of Almighty God, as represented by his Vicar the Pope, 
and lied when they said the government got its just powers 
from the consent of the governed. And that was a lie further 
Ijecause they get their just powers from God, even if Paul 
does make him out a liar. And they lied when they said "that 
whenever any form of government became destructive of 



246 

these ends, it is the Eight of the People to alter or abolish it, 
and to institute a new Government." 

Then these liars sneer about Prudence and say, ^^ Pru- 
dence, indeed." Joe, it is awful the way they went on in this 
lying scheme ; they just lied until they were tired, then they 
lugged in this Titus lie and said, "And for the support of this 
Declaration, with a firm reliance (the firm of Roosevelt, Taft 
& Gibbons) on the protection of divine Providence (in whose 
name Paul lied), we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, 
our Fortunes and our Sacred Honor." 

And the first fellow to sign it was a sign writer. Anybody 
could see that anybody couldn't ever write such a signature 
with a pen. And then a lot of bigots signed. Then they got 
up a joke book and called it a Constitution and they lied, be- 
cause they said that they did it to establish justice, and secure 
the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity. 

Just to show you, Joe, the lying inconsistencies, they de- 
clared their Independence for the purpose of pursuing hap- 
piness, and now they say they establish this Constitution to 
secure the Blessings of Liberty. Joe, I could christianize the 
Indians with government appropriations and ladies and gen- 
tlemen from the Vatican, and the Indians are willing to wait, 
before you could nail all the lies in these Puritanical blas- 
phemies. Now the sophistries of the Titus statements would 
amaze you when Paul alleges to have appointed Titus. 

Now, Titus, the Roman Emperor, had ascended the throne 
some 14 years before Paul wrote this letter t© Titus, and the 
Roman Empire was then known as the world. Say, Joe, what 
if we have been fooled all this time about this church business, 
fooled ourselves. "What if Paul understood the State to be 
the Church, just like the Pope does, and as an authorized rep- 
resentative, an Apostle, in fact, ordained the Emperor of 
Rome in the name of Almighty ''God, that cannot lie prom- 
ised (the Roman Emperor) before the world (the Roman Em- 
pire) began?" Here was a private communication from Paul 
the Ambassador of Jesus Christ, King of kings and Lord of 
lords, writing a purely political letter to the Roman Emperor, 
now the king of Italy, whom Paul under a ''God that cannot 
lie, ' ' had made supreme in Italy over all the principalities and 
powers, answerable as Rev. Dr. Brann in the Catholic World, 
Vol. 62, says, "to no man in his diocese but his physician" 
(Jesus Christ). Joe, you know the Catholics claim apostolic 
succession and the keys to Heaven, and the machinery to its 
government. Joe, I guess they are right, hut they have the 
wrong man in possession, and he is outside of Heaven or 



247 

where Heaven is going to be. Now, Joe, our forefathers, 
these old Pilgrim Fathers built wisely, and I guess they had a 
hint, when, anticipating all other nations they dedicated this 
country and their work and their reliance on Divine Provi- 
dence. That was their tender of a place for his earthly throne 
in the ' ' new heaven and new earth. ' ' Not only that, Joe, but 
God accepted and ratified that tender with the most marvel- 
lous nation time has seen. Her symbols Babylon the king- 
dom temporal and Babylon the Great for the spiritual, pale 
in lustre to but faint symbols in the light of her promised 
glory. All she lacks is the halo of His Smile, which she may 
have with her allegiance. The usurping Pope has been mix- 
ing his church with our politics and if we are right he is sit- 
ting in our Vatican Chapel, and dictating to us what we shall 
do upon our own throne. A few weak men in our wilderness 
answered for us such usurpations with the Declaration of 
Independence, and God reared upon his truth a fabric which 
can only fall as Lincoln said, through suicide. Joe, the word 
Titus signifies '^ protected." 

That means, Joe, that we have a Divine command to pro- 
tect the King of Italy his vassal against conspiring Germany 
and Austria the vassal of the Pope. 

We believed Lincoln, Joe, because we could see him and see 
somebody to love, and when we loved him we loved God. 
While we had Lincoln we walked by faith with God without 
knowing it. He belonged to no church, yet no churchman 
would utter the blasphem}^ that he slept not in Abraham's 
bosom. You remember Lincoln had prophetic gift, for he 
said: "The real issue in this country is the eternal struggle 
(to control eternity) between these two principles — right and 
wrong — throughout the tvorld. They are the two principles 
that have stood face to face (God and Satan) from the l^e- 
ginning of time (Eden lost) and will ever continue to struggle 
(during time). The one is the common (cheap) right of hu- 
manity (the Pope), and the other the divine right of kings" 
(Almighty God). A subtle truth in clouded metaphor. ''It 
is the same principle in whatever shape it develops itself." 
So you see, Joe, the Divine plan is, that the United States as 
His agent should "rule them (the nations) with a rod of iron: 
and he (LTncle Sam) treadeth the winepress of the fierceness 
of the wrath of Almighty God" (as his agent and his power 
against the Pope). Rev. 19-15. 

And Joe, John describes in Chapter 21 of Revelation, the 
"new heaven and new earth," and we called it Epluribus 
Unum "for the first heaven and the first earth (Old Satan) 



248 

were passed away (knocked out by Epluribus Unum), and 
there was no more sea (antagonistic divisions between na- 
tions, but all part of one — our family — and no more of Old 
Gibbons, the See of Baltimore). 

Then, Joe, the Papists here will have to change their al- 
legiance or go to walking on the water. This is no namby- 
pamby proposition for half men, but a fight to secure Wash- 
ington's, Lincoln's, Grant's and McKinley's. They were a 
sample lot to show us what we could produce under the smile 
of Divine pleasure. And he sent us another sample lot in 
Franklin Pierce, Theodore Eoosevelt, W. H. Taft and Gib- 
bons, who claims to be a citizen, which is a lie, because his 
oath to the Pope makes him an alien. These two sample lots 
are on our counter today for us to choose quick which we 
will tie to. 

''Come hither (Eev. 21-9), I .will shew thee the bride, the 
Lamb's wife. . . . And he carried me away in the spirit 
(future) to a great and high mountain (political government), 
and shewed me that great city (nation), the holy Jerusalem, 
descending out of heaven (a gift) from God, Having the glory 
of God: (by reliance of the Declaration of Independence on 
Divine Providence and rededication), and her light (repu- 
tation) was (tvas, ivas) like unto (but not) a stone most pre- 
cious" (was Divine Providence and Washington — is the Pope 
and Taft, was Old Paul and Old Glory— is bogus Old Peter 
and Old Murder). ''And had a wall great and high (situa- 
tion, reputation and resources), and had twelve gates (the 
twelve original Colonies in Phila., Sept. 5, 1773, the gates 
through which we entered), and at the gates twelve angels 
(Colonies, just like a bishop is a symbol for a king) and 
names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve 
tribes of the children of Israel. . . . And the wall of the 
city (resources) had twelve (Colonial) foundations, and in 
them (twelve original Colonies) the names of the twelve Apos- 
tles of the Lamb. And he measured the wall thereof, an hun- 
dred and forty and four cubits, according to the measure of 
a man, that is, of the angel.'' You see we are all angels then. 

Now what is this measure of the ivall. When Arizona and 
New Mexico come in and they will come in separately, we 
have 48 States, each with a governor and two senators ; forty- 
eight times three, equals one hundred forty-four cubits. Now 
a "legal" cubit of the Talmudists (long measure) ivas made 
up of "digits and palms." 

Now, Joe, look at the great seal of the United States, and 
on the obverse is the old eagle; she has the same sprig of 



249 

cedar that she took from Ezekiel (17-3), and the arrows with 
which to ''smite the nations. '^ And you will notice up in Old 
Paul's halo, are thirteen stars; and you remember ''one star 
differeth from another star in glory." Georgia was the miss- 
ing Colony in the first Continental Congress, so she lost some 
of the glory; again some States, like New York and Pennsyl- 
vania, have three counties at high tide, while another is shy 
one at high tide. On the reverse of the seal, Joe, is an Egyp- 
tian (Papal) pyramid with a Masonic eye over it inside of an 
Odd Fellows triangle. That pyramid is for the Eagle to sit on 
ivhen he gets tired, Joe. Joe, the seven churches of Asia in 
Eev. 1, were only symbols of the seven States, Mass., Con- 
necticut, New York, Virginia, South Carolina, North Caro- 
lina and Georgia, that stood out on the land deal under the 
Articles of Confederation, but finally by yielding, made the 
United States possible by giving territory to divide up into 
other States; the seven spirits and seven stars and seven 
candlesticks of Revelation are these States. "Write the 
things which thou hast seen and the things which are, and the 
things which shall be hereafter; the mystery of the seven 
stars which thou sawest in my right hand and the golden can- 
dlesticks. The seven stars are the angels (symbols) of the 
seven churches : and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest 
are the seven churches. ' ' 

Joe, Benjamin Franklin's design for the obverse of our 
great seal was Moses bringing with his staff, the Red Sea in 
upon Pharaoh (the Pope) and his hosts. Jefferson's design 
was the Children of Israel being led by the cloud and pillar. 
And, Joe, there was another man on the Committee, Mr. 
Adams, a Unitarian, I believe. He proposed the judgment or 
choice of Hercules. Hercules, the hero, is shown resting on 
a club — a veritable "Big Stick." He is shown before, and 
deliberating between following the goddess of Virtue, or the 
goddess of Pleasure. Just where Uncle Sam Hercules is to- 
day; deliberating between following Moses and Jesus Christ, 
or denying Moses and Jesus Christ. Hercules was the myth- 
ical ancestor of the Dorian dynastic tribe of Old Greece. 
Read Hercules in the British Ency., and you have a presenta- 
tion of our present and immediate future; even Hot Springs. 
Thus Franklin and Jefferson in the sacred record ; and Adams 
denouncing the "frightful engines of ecclesiastical councils, 
of diabolical malice, and Calvinistic good nature," mirror^ 
ing in Greek mythology the essence of Franklin & Jefferson, 
converge in the prophecies of Israel's latter days. 

Joe, our Supreme Court having the keeping of the Ark of 



250 

the Covenant, or the Constitution, and the testimony, the 
Declaration of Independence, is the nine cities given in Joshua 
21:13-16. The names of the cities interpreted, read, ''alli- 
ance,^' ''whiteness," "excelling," "obedience," "sandv," 
"a recess," "an eye or fountain," "extended (jurisdic- 
tion?)," "house of the sun (of righteousness?)." Could you 
have a better description of our Supreme Court and her 
future, in nine words ? But taking the meaning of their first 
city, "alliance," and remembering that this Court represents 
us in our essence, we connect in the "alliance," the following 
verse, or Benjamin, with his four cities, England, Ireland, 
Scotland and Wales, and we have the twelve tribes of Israel 
reunited; Joseph (United States) shall have two portions. 
"All the cities of the Levites (legislators) within the posses- 
sion of the children of Israel were forty and eight cities 
(States) with the suburbs" (41). 

Paul tells the French (4-13) "Ye know how through the 
infirmity of the flesh (in the United States — Tuberculosis and 
loathsome diseases) I preached the gospel unto you at the 
first. For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one 
by a bondmaid (Papacy), the other by a freeiuoman (Pauli- 
cian or Puritan). But he who was of the bondwoman was 
born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by prom- 
ise'' of "inheritance everlasting." "Nevertheless what 
saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: 
for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son 
of the freewoman." 

You will notice too, Joe, that Chapter 2 of Eevelation, has 
a letter "unto the angel of the Church of Ephesus" (the 
United States), and with this description, it is hard to tell in 
the mixed condition of National affairs if it is intended for 
you or for Taft, because it don't state specifically what kind 
of an angel it is. "Nevertheless (v. 5) I have somewhat 
against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Eemember 
therefore from ivlience thou art fallen, and repent, and do the 
first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will re- 
move thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent." 

And Joe from the 12th to the 15th verses is a note to the 
Hot Springs people under the symbol of Pergamos' (Papal 
' ' citadel ") , the beast of Ephesus is in this citadel Joe. Antipas 
the martyr, was Eobert Proctor, who died for his integrity, 
fighting this beast. Balaam is (idolatry-Papacy). Balak 
( " to make empty ' ' ) ? is Roosevelt. Just read a good Religious 
Cyclopedia on Balak. 

You see Joe, the Old Testament contained the Garden of 
Eden and the history of the chosen people of a Nation, that 



251 

spurned God, and Jesus Christ and have been persecuted ever 
since — a name without a nation — a ''hissing and a hy-word/' 
Joe the New Testament is ours, Nationally the chosen people 
to build ''a new heaven and a new earth '^ on the ruins of 
Paradise. It is the same old fight with idolatry, which crushed 
the Jewish nation and scattered her children like chaff on a 
summer threshing floor. Joe, the seven trumpets are the 
seven pamplilets I sent to Congress last session, and this is the 
last trumpet. The 39th of Job (24) tells you what the Papacy 
think of the other seven. 

Joe, the book of Job is doubly symbolical. If you will image 
Job to be Uncle Sam, and read Job, you will get light; here 
the foregoing seven States appear as seven sons; the three 
daughters, are the first love, or the Puritan, then the lapse to 
Papacy, then the return, or acceptance of the new condition. 
For Satan, read the Pope. Remember Joe, the natural an- 
tipathy of the Eagle, our symbol, to the Dragon, a proper 
s^Tubol for the Pope; and the action of the dragon as to the 
eagle is exactly the essence of the action of the Pope toward 
Uncle Sam. Remember, too, that the eagle of the Roman 
empire was the symbol of the domination of the earth. With 
these in mind we may now recur to Titus, and clear up the 
third and fourth verses of the first chapter. The authority 
for the appointment of Titus, to such position in the Roman 
world as Moses held in one sense in the Jewish nation, was 
promulgated as a general principle, in ''King of kings, and 
Lord of Lords," the divine right of a king, ivhen Divinely 
ordained under the Old Dispensation, through God, our Saviour, 
and confirmed to the Roman Emperor, now the king of Italy, 
under and by authority of Jesus Christ the Savioiir in the New 
Dispensation, and the King of all the earth. And by the hand 
of Paul his regularly ordained Ambassador. Showing that it 
is one and the same political economy, and political, and 
an orderly proceeding by an orderly creator; not a makeshift 
in a condition of rebellion by man, requiring the coming of 
Jesus Christ, but such ordinary political arrangement of an 
earthh^ ]^>Ionarch, who puts his son in regal authority over a 
Province. Let us not plume ourselves or our ancestors, on 
having changed any of God's plans. He made the doctrine of 
predestination, and foreknowledge the same thing, conformed 
to eternal truth to strip it of its mystery, and called it faith, 
and paralleled it with the seeming inconsistent doctrine of free 
moral agency, but both grounded in justice, and feasible for 
earth. Those who elected to enter the final kingdom could, 
and those who elected not to enter, had their choice. In the final 
kingdom, it will be the Higher law universally acknowledged, 



252 

and enforced. So you see Joe, Titus signifying ^'protected," 
and the Vatican being our property, and the Pope our impla- 
cable enemy, and the King of Italy bound to protect it in our 
interest, we are bound to protect Italy against all comers; the 
Pope's designs against Italy, to his own enhanced temporal 
power. You will now recall Uncle Joe, that Austria is under 
concordat to the Pope; that Germany backed Austria in the 
breaking of the Berlin treaty, and that Austria and Italy, are 
almost openly arming against each other. 

Say Joe, the epistle of James was written to the United 
States, because it is written "to the twelve tribes which are 
scattered abroad' ' (in Eome), and Joe, James gives us a chap- 
ter on riches or trusts, and what is likely to happen to them 
in the future. Read the 5th Chapter of James, and then Joe 
read what Lincoln said in his message to Congress of Dec. 
3, 1861, on the '^effort to place capital on an equal footing 
with, if not above, labor in the structure of the Government." 

You will conclue Joe, as I do, that Lincoln found this scheme 
a part of the Papal scheme to wreck this country in the Civil 
War, for Lincoln said, ' ^ It continues to develop that the insur- 
rection is largely, if not exclusively, a war upon the first prin- 
ciple of popular government— the rights of the people. Con- 
clusive evidence of this is found in the most grave and ma- 
turely considered public documents. . . .In those doc- 
uments we find the abridgment of the selection of public offi- 
cers except the legislative, boldly advocated, with labored 
arguments to prove that large control of the people in gov- 
ernment is the source of all political evil. . . . Now, 
there is no such relation between capital and labor as assumed 
(by the Pope) ; nor is there any such thing as a free man being 
fixed for life in the condition of a hired laborer. Both these 
assumptions are false, and all inferences from them are 
groundless. Labor is prior to and independent of capital. 
Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed 
if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, 
and deserves much higher consideration. ' ' Lincoln was right 
Joe, and as long as Lincoln is on the record with that message, 
I believe the control of large enterprises in this country, by 
Morgan, the Pope's banker, is a menace to our stability, and 
that the rich man's panic, wherein Morgan was exhibited as our 
Saviour, while he and the Pope tightened their grip upon the 
resources of the country, was a cheap Jesuitical trick, which 
with the Corporation absolution tax, is all a part of the Papal 
scheme to take this country. 

Joe, the Bible is our National text book, it was made almost 
especially for us, it is our charter; but Antichrist the Pope 



253 

is trying to put it out of our schools and bum it, because it 
is our old and new Declaration of Independence; a new proc- 
lamation of emancipation and commission to take for our 
king, and to make to him, actual vassals of all the world. The 
Pope has made vassals all over Europe, and is after us. He 
knows that the key of heaven, is the power of the United 
States. Joe, read Eev. 12. We are the woman with a crown 
of 12 (Colonies) stars upon her head; ^'And there was war in 
heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and 
the dragon fought and his angels. And prevailed not; neither 
was their place found any more in heaven/' 

Joe, you know I am your brother, and I am 57, and older 
than you, and our Heavenly Father being away, I had to use 
the rod, or spoil the child, but I have found Joe, that none of 
the other boys have any advantage over you, and if you will 
consent, we will just call this a game to rouse the other fel- 
lows who held back and would not open the fight. That is the 
way Paul feels about it, for he takes this Old Paul talk, as a 
term of affection, for writing to Philemon in Chapter I. and 
9th verse, he sends you his love, for he says: "Yet for love's 
sake I rather beseech thee, being such an one as Paul the aged, 
and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ." That means, Joe, 
that you are patriotic, but a prisoner loith Jesus Christ. That 
the Pope controls the executive office and when a Congressman 
kicks on the Papal program, a way will be found as it was 
with Roosevelt to punish a Congressman in patronage, or 
reputation, or in some manner, to make him lie quiet while the 
Papal program was put through, or walk up to the Papal rack, 
sell his soul and his country, and help put the deal through. 
The people ought to know this scheme for what it is, Joe. 
You remember Paul tells England in Colossians 2:21, ''Touch 
not; taste not; handle not." 

Now Joe, if these Papists are as patriotic as Gibbons claims 
they are, they will make no objection to an open, welcomed 
proof to all the people, and vindicate "Holy Mother Church." 
So they will make no objection when we push them back from 
the public crib to be replaced by men who give their allegiance 
to Uncle Sam, instead of the Pope. If they are patriotic, and 
they hold their allegiance to Uncle Sam above that to the Pope, 
there can be no fight, and they can prove the Bible a lie on this 
idolatry point. For a starter, retire from the Army, Navy and 
Public Service, every Catholic priest or prelate of any descrip- 
tion, and from every Executive, eludicial and Legislative De- 
partment every Roman Catholic in position to get hold of 
Government secrets. Strip the uniform and right of practice, 



254 

from every Papal doctor in the Army, Navy, and Public Serv- 
ice of God Almighty's throne, the United States. For the 
doctor, let the test be, membership in or adherence to the 
American Medical Association, a Papal appendage; a boycott 
association; a medical trust, and an organization for the slow 
poisoning of the American people in the interest of the Pope; 
responsible as Dr. McCormack, their travelling organizer, says, 
for one-third of the sickness and deaths, each year; which 
makes it the official pronouncement of the work of the Ameri- 
can Medical Association. Let the further test be, the pre- 
scribing of any mineral medicine known to leave in its wake. 
or to produce any morbid conditions, or who practice invacci- 
nation for any reason. If Congress cuts them off from the 
public service, and the great prestige it gives them to keep 
up this great slaughter of the people through the country, 
Congress will not have this blood, and this suffering of the 
people on its hands, to feed a beast which has lived on blood 
for nearly sixteen centuries. Under such circumstances made 
by the Pope and his American Medical Association themselves, 
no white doctor with a white man's heart dare raise a protest; 
if he does, he is not fit to prescribe for a dog, or live in a white 
man's country. No man will want to live on the miseries of 
his fellow man. Why Joe, the Papal Society of Jesus is only 
an assassination society, so rotten and criminal, that it even 
sickened the Pope at one time. So cunning, insidious and 
murderous, that heathen and civilized monarchs alike have 
had to drive them from their dominions like dogs, and they 
went, like dogs. They are organized for the Pope, and against 
common decency, and the man they cannot use is counted a 
mortal enemy. This American Medical Association is a part 
of their scheme, and Uncle Sam has joined the American 
Medical Association ; warms this serpent in his bosom, that it 
may be intrenched to turn upon his own and sting them; one- 
third the deaths, and one-third the sickness every year. I 
admit that thousands of good men, individual physicians are 
ig-norant of these conditions ; that is their misfortune, but it is 
no license for them to keep on. Joe, Roosevelt, Taft and the 
Pope, want you and Congress to make this murder arm of the 
Papacy a ' ' regular ' ' part of the structure of this Government 
by giving them a Children's Bureau, and a National Health 
Department. So far Congress has been too patriotic to do it. 
Now pui Congress in its true light before the people, and 
wash its hands of this business. Defy the Big Stick and the 
Steam Roller; put a Bill or a Joint Resolution, severing the 
United States Government in every way from the American 
Medical Association, and dismissing from the service every 



255 

man wlio does not meet the above tests; put it up to Taft; if 
he signs, lie is a patriot, and if he don't, he is a Papal con- 
federate and a traitor. You can trust the people Joe, when 
they understand that you did it to save their lives ; save them 
suffering; save their liberties. Say Joe, the Psalms' were writ- 
ten for these very times. You remember in I. Timothy, 4:6, 
it says about Popery: ''If thou put the brethren in remem- 
brance of tliese things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus 
Christ." Joe, that is all it takes now, to be a good minister 
of Jesus Christ. Old Paul, like the Old Pope, carried his 
religion into his politics, and his j)olitics into his religion. 
Some greazy priests shouted "bigot" and "intolerance," and 
we neither pollute our politics with our religion, or our religion 
with our politics, while the priest keeps right on doing both; 
we are all going to be shaken over hell for this. And Joe, 
right here you will .notice in the third verse of the 4th Chapter 
of I. Timothy, something that will interest the "insurgent" 
farmers in the Mississippi Valley. You remember the old law 
would not allow the "chosen" to eat swine. Well, in the 3rd 
and 4th verses, that commandment is reversed, on condition. 
"Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from 
meats, ivhich God hath created to be received with thanksgiv- 
ing of them which believe and know the truth. For every 
creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be 
received with thanksgiving"." Now Joe, what does thanks- 
giving imply? Declaration of faith, grown to reliance. Now, 
Joe, there is an instructive parable about swine, you will re- 
member: "And there was a good way off from them (as far as 
Rome) an herd of swine feeding. So the devils besought him 
saying. If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd 
of swine." Now Matthew tells this in 8-32— Mark, in 5-11. 
Matthew a (re) publican you remember, said there were ttvo of 
these devils. Now hear Luke the physician, tell it in 8-27. 
"And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the 
city (authorized by the nation— Uncle Sam) a certain man, 
which had devils a long time, and wore no clothes (a curse), 
neither abode in any houses hut in the tombs (death). When he 
saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a 
loud voice (commotion) said, What have / to do with thee, 
Jesus, thou Son of God most high? I beseech thee, torment 
me not. For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out 
of the man. For oftentimes it had caught him : and he was 
kept bound (crazy) with chains and in fetters; and he brake 
the bands, and was driven from the devil (the Pope) into the 
wilderness (IT. S.). iVnd Jesus asked him, saying. What is 



256 

thy name^ And he said, Legion; because many devils were 
entered into him. And they besought him that he would not 
command them to go out into the deep," and you remember 
Joe, he suffered them to go into the swine, at their own request. 
Why did they want to go into the swine, Joe? Why Joe, when 
you are beaten, and sick, and dead broke, you want to go home 
don't you? You see this is a double s^nnbol; the swine being 
the Pope and his priests feeding, imbued with the spirit of 
disease, this curse returns to them and runs them violently into 
the sea and destruction; just as God for our disobedience in 
alliance with idolatry, makes to us, while we are disobedient, 
the swine, a curse of disease and insanity. Matthew the (re)- 
publican thought this priest and doctor were two different 
devils. Luke, the physician, was posted, he recognized them 
as one. Mark stands for Congress, and he says there are 
about 2,000 on the Government rolls. Now just read the first 
verse of Mark, the Congress, and keep on in the reading, it is 
a symbolic processional of Congressional legislation in the new 
condition. ' ' The beginning' of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the 
Son of God.'^ So you see Joe, this becomes to the farmer 
raising swine, a question of ' ^ political economy, ' ' just as Prof. 
Fisher, of Yale, the President of the Committee of One Hun- 
dred, has figured it out. As long as the United States and the 
State governments keep hitched up with the " regular '^ apos- 
tolic Pope system of medicine, the Almighty is going to make 
the American hog, that great staple of the American farmer, 
a curse of disease, of insanity and death to his disobedient, 
idolatry seeking children. There it is, for a political and 
economic proposition, Joseph. Bead all of Luke, the physi- 
cian, 8th, and then the 9th, ^'Then he called his twelve disci- 
ples (twelve original Colonies expanded into Congress) to- 
gether, and gave them poiver aud authority over all devils, 
and to cure diseases (a department supervised by Jesus Christ 
not the Pope). And he sent them (Congress) to preach the 
Kingdom of God, and to heal the sick. And he said unto 
them: Take nothing for your journey (calls), neither staves 
(proscription) scrip (enforced ''regularity"), neither bread 
(special government recognition), neither money; neither have 
two coats apiece" (one concealing the other as now). So 
Uncle Sam is the twelve disciples, and you are one of the 
preachers. Matthew the (re) publican. Mark the scribe (Con- 
gress). Luke the physician, and John the Evangelist. Now 
Joe, we are organized, and the Acts of the Apostles are sym- 
bolic of our acts. 

Joe, the Eevelation was written by John sixty-six years^ 



257 

approximately, after his first gospel, which says: '*In the be- 
ginning (to live after the world is finished) was the ivord (de- 
cree of the Almighty to the 12 Colonies, now Uncle Sam) and 
the word was icith God (his authority) and the word ivas 
God'' (a Divine command). 

. Now Joe, you and the boys in the House and Senate, appre- 
ciate a joke, and I will give you a glimpse of one of many in 
the Bible. John wrote his Apocalyptic vision in exile, on the 
Isle of Patmos. ]\Iany pages have been written on the sub- 
lime pathos of this conjunction. Now Joe, imagine Uncle 
Sam, in Eevelation; in exile; on the Isle of Patmos; and it is 
Pat-mos-tly; begad it is Gibbons fur wan, John Farley is two, 
that makes tliree. And Joe, to read it makes you think of 
the old cry, ''Come out McCarthy, and fight the Dootch.''

Joe, that list is from an old World Almanac, and omitted some 
names that I wasn't sure on, and none of these fellows was less 
than an Irish Bishop. 

Now Joe, I dare poke this at these fellows, because my an- 
cestor who lived in Londonderry was a Eoosevelt man and a 
Mitchell; he dressed 24 of his sons in uniform, so I am told, 
and marched them around the municipal building, just to show 
where he was on the Eoosevelt race suicide policy. Now Joe, 
here is the argyment between us Oirish : Wan of thim, a dhirty 
heretic says : I wud have yez know I kem f rum an ancient and 
respictid family ; me ancestors kem over in the Ark wid Noah. 
Now this heretic Oirish was schmart, he had his eye on the 
^'inheritance" that was promised to Abraham, Isaac and 
Jacob, while all the Gintlemin Irish in the list above say with 
the Pope: "Divil a wan of mine, could yez get into the Ark 
wid Noah, faith tve had a boat uv our own.'' Peter's bark; 
Peruvian bark; Jesuit's bark. 

Say, Joe, those fellows don't yet see that they are one dis- 
pensation too late by their own claims to "get in" on the in- 
heritance." These proud Oirish, "me own," hev been done 
by the Dago Eytalian. 

John Ireland imdertook to tell his holyness, that these gen- 
tlemen were American citizens; and his hol^mess said, John 

1988—17 



258 

Ireland, you are a liar, there is only one brand, the Jesuitical 
brand, and all of these gentlemen are Eytalians ; for they sing 
in Eytalian beautifully. 

Now Joe, some good people who mean well, but vote against 
the Puritan, will be shocked at my irreverence, as they sit in 
their sumptuous churches, and think also of the peculiarities 
of Billy Sunday, who puts up an old Pilgrim tabernacle, tacks 
on it a cheap trumpet: "Get right with God/' And Billy, 
like you and me, calls a spade a spade, and a liar a liar; and 
there I leave you both, and call the Pope, and his spawn. 
Devils. A father that won't joke some with his child is an 
unnatural father. A child that cannot be familiar with his 
father, has no father; has no home. I want a heavenly home, 
and it is in sight for both of us. A father that can fool a 
child, and punish a child, and laugh at a child, to correct a 
child, and teach him wisdom, is a kind, merciful and loving- 
Father. And when through these methods he saves the child, 
he may laugh in derision at the Heathen idolaters as does 
David, the great singer of Israel: "He that sitteth in the 
heavens shall laugh : the Lord shall have them in derision. ' ' 

Say, Joe, David of Old Israel wrote a lot of the Psalms ; just 
read the first two, and in the first verse read nation for "man, " 
and remember that those two Psalms were written for the 
benefit of Uncle Sam right now. 

Joe, whenever you read of His disciples, apostles, or the 
twelve, just remember it has some relation to us. As the Old 
Testament is in part a history of the chosen of Old, so the Old 
Testament and the New are a history of us. We are now at 
the third denial Joe, and I am the old rooster that makes the 
apostate weep. 

Joe, the State is the Church, and we are disciples, and you 
are an Elder; the question now is, what kind? The Presbyte- 
rian, Baptist, Methodist and what not, who belong to churches 
so-called, and vote with Papacy, are greater blasphemers than 
gamblers and blacklegs. They claim to be of the "chosen," 
and like the chosen of old, they crucify him openly, put hini to 
an open shame, and heap up to themselves greater damnation. 
Heaven is earth, and as long as they will not be loyal on earth, 
they will never have heaven anywhere. Joe. a Methodist 
Bishop assured his friends that Taft was favorable to mis- 
sions, and not many months afterward Taft addressed the 
Pope's Missionaries; some Jesuits; with hands red with blood 
of Lincoln and McKinley, as " My dear friends. ' ' This Bishop 



259 

evidently ''Believeth all things, liopetli all things, and sival- 
lo Weill all things." 

Joe, Paul stands for the fight with ' ' beasts after the manner 
of men'^ at Ephesiis, from which arose the Paulicans, famous 
in all the East for constancy, and the Roman Pontiffs baptised 
these Greek dissenters, with their own blood. In process of 
time, ''persecuted with the utmost vehemence by the Roman 
Pontiffs, they appeared in Italy under the name Patarina, and 
Gathari, or Gazari, and under Papal France, as Albigenses, 
their blood baptised sunny Prance, and enriched her soil, while 
their bodies were fed by Papal fiends to burning fagots. Mi- 
grating to a purer civilization, they met the derisive epithet 
of Puritan, in the Mother country. This precious, blood bap- 
tised and consecrated heritage they brought, and like the man 
who built upon a rock an enduring foundation, built upon 
Pl^maouth Rock the edifice, which, "changed in the twinkling 
of an eye," shall endure a monument through all eternity to 
Paul's matchless, deathless character. Since the sixth cen- 
tury, followed by and fattening the beast of Ephesus, the men 
to whom he has lent dignity, honor and opportunity; for whom 
he has erected the school house and the fabric of a mighty 
empire, have turned in the evening of creation, to stigmatize 
him as ''Old Paul," "religious intolerance," and "bigot." 
And that sublime wisdom, past finding out, but in the retro- 
spect of sifting for six thousand years to make a world worth 
having, is greeted at the zenith of the world's best effort, with 
the Judas greeting: "Hail Master." 

Joe, in the masterpiece of our tongue, we find painted the 
"Comedy of Errors," and "All's Well that Ends well," and 
in the subtle masterpiece of all tongues we find that "Many 
that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first/' Matt. 
19-3. 

Will a summary of the titles of the books of the Holy Word 
putting the last first, put us abreast of conditions today, and 
give us a Sacred cipher in our vernacular! 

Essaying to read it, I violate my natural inclination, in as- 
suming the title of Matthew. Matthew is a name similar to 
my own (Mitchell). Matthew was a publican and I am a re- 
publican. Matthew was and I am interested in Government 
revenues. 

Matthew leads the subject matter of the New Testament 
up to Mark (the scribe-Congress), as I have led it up to you, 
for Congress. 

The two press it upon Luke the physician, as I have, and as 



260 

Congress will; and concluding the gospels with ''that dis- 
ciple whom Jesus loved/' John, the resident of Ephesus, the 
Evangelist, the Puritan, the exile of Patmos, who wrote The 
Eevelation; whose gospel ''was to refute the Corinthians, 
Ebionites, and other heretics, whose tenets, though they 
branched out into a variety of subjects, all originated from 
erroneous opinions concerning the person of Christ, and the 
creation of the world." The apostle who wrote to us as the 
Ephesians. 

The ministry of Matthew, Mark (Congress), Luke (the phy- 
sician), and John (the Puritan), fruits in the Acts of the 
Apostles (the twelve Colonies grown to the United States). 

The United States again becomes the Puritan of the na- 
tions, and as the Puritan writes the letter to the Papacy, un- 
der the name of the Eomans. Appropriates to the Senate 
and the House, letters to the Corinthians. Adopts as her own 
the letter to France, under the name of Galatians ; adopts the 
letter to the Ephesians as to our own people ; adopts the letter 
to the Philippians as a message to the citizens of Hot Springs, 
Arkansas. Adopts the letter to the Colossians as a letter to 
England and recognizes the letters to the Thessalonians as 
letters to the Young Turks in their new government. The 
letter to Timothy, as a letter of adoption to those of mixed 
marriages, who renounce idolatry and adopting the letter to 
Titus as a letter to the Italian King. Kecognizing the epistle 
to Philemon as a letter to Uncle Joe Cannon and the under- 
signed and squaring our mutual account under verse 18. Eec- 
ognizing the letter to the Hebrews as an adoption or assimila- 
tion of the Hebrew and the Gentile into one family. 

Taking the general epistle of James as the Elder Brother's 
welcome to the Apostleship. 

Keceiving the epistle of Peter as his personal defense 
against the Papacy's misrepresentation of him and his per- 
sonal rebuke to it. 

Accepting the first epistle of John as a fellowship welcome 
into the Apostleship. 

Taking the second epistle of John as a rebuke for the elec- 
tion of Taft to the Presidency, and the 9th, 10th and 11th 
verses as a very pointed reminder not to repeat the blunder. 

Taking the third epistle of John as a greeting and an in- 
struction to me to sign this letter as I do sign it. 

The epistle of Jude or Judas as an apostolic endorsement 
of the epistle of Peter. We then have arrived at The Revela- 



261 

tion of St. John the Divine, the Puritan, with his wonderful 
description of the finishing of the creative days, and the com- 
ing in of the '^new heaven and new earth," the inheritance of 
Jacob the Puritan. 

Far away Moses sends his cipher in the captions of his 
books. Genesis, for the beginning of earth; Exodus, for the 
departure of the old earth with the Pope (Levi) to cuss; 
(Levi-to-cuss) relying on Numbers (paralyzers), the Pope is 
Due-to-run-O-my ; and thus Moses laughs with us. 

Then comes the injunction, Joshua (josh away), Judges 
(voters). 

Following this is the beautiful story of Ruth, the spiritual 
side of Government purified of the Papacy, become a part in 
spirit of the State — Church of Israel restored, following 
which comes the first book of Samuel the Judge of Israel. 

From this book run the historical and prophetic to Esther, 
a reflection of Euth. Then comes Job the condensed history 
of Uncle Sam, and his triumphant conversion to Puritanism. 
The Psalms, the praise of Uncle Sam redeemed from Papal 
contamination, and the Proverbs, the experience of Uncle Sam 
condensed into proverbial wisdom for handier reference, and 
a liberal education in the Public Schools. '^The fear of the 
Lord is the beginning of knowledge." 

Ecclesiastes becomes a meditation by Uncle Samuel upon 
Ms experiences and Solomon's Song is the Millennial song. 

Then follow a sample lot of millennial products in symbol; 
Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obe- 
diah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, 
Zechariah and Malachi. Do you wonder that these men could 
prophesy? Men on whose hearts had been written the im- 
mutable law of the Almighty. Do you wonder that the Puri- 
tans were prophets and the Declaration of Independence a 
prophecy ? 

Those men knew the last verses of the Old Testament. '^Re- 
memher ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded 
unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judg- 
ments. Behold, I will send Elijah the prophet before the 
coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord: And he 
shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart 
of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the 
earth with a curse.'' 

Joe, in Luke first, is told of "Gabriel, that stand in the pres- 
ence of God, ' ' appearing to Zacharias the priest to tell him of 



262 

the coming of the birth of John the Baptist to his wife, Elisa- 
beth, ''And, behold, thon shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, 
nntil the day that these things shall be performed, because 
thou believest not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their 
season.'- Immediately following this recital, ''the angel Ga- 
briel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Naza- 
reth, To a Virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph 
("he shall add"), of the house of David; and the virgin's 
name was Mary (Greek form of Miriam, signifying "rebel- 
lion," sister of Moses and Aaron, smitten with leprosy, and 
shut out of the camp). And the angel came in unto her, and 
said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with 
thee : blessed art thou among women. And when she saw 
him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what 
manner of salutation this should be. And the angel said unto 
her. Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God. 
And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth 
a son, and shalt call his name Jesus. He shall be great, and 
shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God 
shall give unto him the throne of his father David: And he 
shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever ; and of his king- 
dom there shall be no end. Then said Mary unto the angel. 
How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? The Holy Ghost 
shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall over- 
shadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be 
born of thee shall be called the Son of God. And, behold, thy 
cousin Elisabeth ("to whom God is the oath"), she hath also 
conceived a son in her old age : and this is the sixth month with 
her, who was called barren. For with God nothing shall be 
impossible. And Mary said. Behold the handmaid of the 
Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel 
departed from her." 

Let us try to paraphase this prophetically. Gabriel appears 
to Zacharias (England) and announces to him that of his 
wife. Queen Elizabeth, shall be born the Puritan (or John the 
Baptist). To Mary (the virgin wilderness) he announces she 
shall conceive, and "that holy thing (physical and political 
purity) which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of 
God." "And Mary . . . entered into the house of Zacha- 
rias, and saluted Elisabeth. And it came to pass, that, when 
Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in 
her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost." 

This Joe, makes the Puritanic, the Messiah's kingdom, and 
we are the Messiah of the nations ; we begun to teach in the 



263 

temple in our twelfth year of Independence; our betrayal to 
the chief priests is accomplished ; our crucifixion at hand, and 
the third day we shall rise again. 

Joe, read the first and second of Luke; the ''wise men" 
(legislators and scientists) and the shepherds (preachers) 
found the child Jesus cradled in a manger, where the cattle 
were fed, and you know the Papal symbol, the Egyptians, 
worshipped cattle, and I suppose Luke puts the ''canonized 
saints'' with the cattle. The Papacy have so crowded the 
places of entertainment that Mary and Joseph and Jesus are 
politically crowded into the stable with the cattle — and asses, 
their "canonized saints." 

Joe, read Acts 12th, and remember that means Peter re- 
leased from the prison of Papacy, and become a Puritan, and 
that Khoda ("a rose") is the national flower of Great Britain. 
Eespectfully,

i 



"THE IRREPRESSIBLE CONFLICT." 



I beg to quote to yon the immortal Lincoln in his message 
to Congress, of Dee. 3d, 1861, as follows : "It continues to de- 
velop that the insurrection is largely, if not exclusively, a war 
upon the first principle of popular government — the rights of 
the people. 

^^ Conclusive evidence of this is found in the most grave 
and maturely considered public documents, as well as in the 
general tone of the insurgents. In those documents we find 
the abridgment of the selection of public officers except the 
legislative, boldly advocated, with labored arguments to 
prove that large control of the people in government is the 
source of all political evil. Monarchy itself is sometimes 
hinted at as a possible refuge from the power of the people. 
In my present position I could scarcely be justified were I to 
omit raising a warning voice against this approach of return- 
ing despotism. It is not needed, or fitting here, that a general 
argument should be made in favor of popular institutions; 
but there is one point, with its CONNECTIONS, not so hack- 
neyed as most others, to which I ask a brief attention. It is 
the effort to place capital on an equal footing with, if not 
above, labor, in the structure of the Government. It is as- 
sumed that labor is available onlj in connection with capital; 
that nobody labors unless somebody else, owning capital, 
somehow by the use of it induces him to labor. This assumed, 
it is next considered whether it is best that capital shall hire 
laborers, and thus induce them to work by their own consent, 
or buy them, and drive them to it without their consent. Hav- 
ing proceeded so far, it is naturally concluded that all labor- 
ers are either hired laborers, or what we call slaves. And 
further, it is assumed that whoever is once a hired laborer, 
is fixed in that condition for life. Now, there is no such rela- 
tion between capital and labor as assumed; nor is there any 
such thing as a free man being fixed for life in the condition 
of a hired laborer. Both these assumptions are false, and 
all inferences from them are g]'oundless. Labor is prior. to 
and independent of capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor, 
and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. 

^ ' Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much higher 
consideration. Capital has its rights, which are worthy of 

(265) 



266 

protection as any other rights. Nor is it denied that there is, 
and probably always will be, a relation between labor and cap- 
ital, producing mntnal benefits. The error is in assuming that 
the whole labor of the community exists within that relation. 
A few men own capital, and those few avoid labor themselves, 
and, with their capital, hire or buy another few to labor for 
them. A large majority befong to neither class — neither work 
for others, nor have others working for them. In most of the 
Southern States, a majority of the whole people of all colors 
are neither slaves nor masters ; while in the Northern, a large 
majority are neither hirers nor hired. Men, with their fam- 
ilies — wives, sons, and daughters — work for themselves, on 
their farms, in their houses, and in their shops, taking the 
'whole product to themselves, and asking no favors of capital 
on the one hand, nor of hired laborers or slaves on the other. 

^^It is not forgotten that a considerable number of persons 
mingle their own labor with capital — that is, they labor with 
their own hands and also buy or hire others to labor for 
them; but this is only a mixed, and not a distinct class. No 
principle stated is disturbed by the existence of this mixed 
class. Again, as has already been said, there is not of neces- 
sity any such thing as the free hired laborer being fixed to 
that condition for life. 

' ' Many independent men everywhere in these States, a few 
years back in their lives, were hired laborers. The prudent^ 
penniless beginner in the world labors for wages awhile, saves 
a surplus with which to buy tools or land for himself, then 
labors on his own account another while, and at length hires 
another new beginner to help him. This is the JUST and gen- 
erous and prosperous SYSTEM, which opens up the way to 
all, gives hope to all, and consequent energy and progress 
and improvement of condition to all. No men living are more 
worthy to be trusted than those who toil up from poverty — 
none less inclined to take or touch aught which they have not 
honestly earned. Let them BEWARE of SURRENDERING 
A POLITICAL POWER which they already possess, and 
which, if surrendered, will surely be used to close the door of 
ADVANCEMENT against such as they, and to fi^ new DIS- 
ABILITIES and BURDENS upon them, TILL ALL OF 
LIBERTY SHALL BE LOST. ' ' Thus spake Lincoln. 

Lincoln then was ' ' insurgent ' ' on the tariff, believing in the 
protection of labor against competitive labor abroad, and 
believing equally in the protection of the small independent 
capitalist. He would reject a tariff benefitting the laborer as 



267 

against foreign competition, yet hurdening him with over pro- 
tected capital at home. 

Much less would he tolerate a Central Bank of discount for 
industrials large and small, in the hands of men, who, engi- 
neering a rich man's panic to entrap to the Pope's hanker, 
with the aid of a conspiring traitorous President, a menacing 
rival, and a string of banks; and putting capital above labor 
in the structure of the government, empower these same men 
to engineer a rich or a poor man's panic at will, and through 
capital establish the enslaving feudal system of the Pope, and 
his banker. ''Let them beware of surrendering a political 
power which they already possess, and which, if surrendered, 
will surely be used to close the door of advancement against 
such as they, and to fiiL new disabilities and burdens upon 
them, till all of liberty shall be lost." 

''^Resolved, That we approve the position taken by the Gov- 
ernment, that the people of the United States can never regard 
with indifference the attempt of anv European power to over- 
throiu by force or to SUPPLANT BY FRAUD the institu- 
tions of any republican government on the Western continent, 
and that they will view with extreme jealousy, as menacing to 
the peace and independence of this our countrv, the efforts 
of any SUCH POWER to obtain new footholds FOR mon- 
archial governments, sustained by a foreign military force 
in near proximitv to the United States." — Republican Na- 
tional Platform, 1864. 

''A great CHANGE has come over the Republican party as 
far as its policy and attitude toward the church is concerned. 
* * * (6) A further proof of this recognition is the ap- 
pointment of a GREAT NUMBER of Catholics* to govern- 
ment positions. If fact, the Ancient Order of Hibernians and 
the Knights of Columbus have in their membership a LARGE 
PERCENTAGE of government employees from various 
states." — W. C. Nohe, Sec'v Catholic Club, Washington, June 
15, 1902. 

This ''GREAT CHANGE" was accomplished through the 
killing of President McKinley, and the "religious tolerance" 
of Roosevelt. 

NINETY-FOUR PER CENT (late estimate) of the em- 
ployees of the Federal Bureau of Engraving and Printing, 
are Roman Catholics. 

SEVENTY-THREE PER CENT of the employees of the 
Government Printing Office are Roman Catholics. 

FIFTY PER CENT, approximately, of all the employees 



268 

of the Federal Administrative Departments in the District of 
Columbia are Eoman Catholics. 

Now it is sought to give this Eoman Catholic interest a Na- 
tional Health Department, a practically permanent Cabinet 
position in the very structure of the Government. 

It would seem that the conspiracy to "supplant by fraud'' 
which Lincoln and the Eepublican giants of 1864 said the 
people "could never regard with indifference' ' is proceeding 
very satisfactorily to the Pope, with the "indifference" and 
"increasing toleration" of the President. "Supplant by 
fraud" could only mean the Eoman Catholic Church, and is 
the same reference as the "imposture of pretended patriot- 
ism," in Washington's Farewell Address. 

"Or if he (William H. Taft) were a Eoman Catholic him- 
self, it ought not to affect in the slightest degree any man's 
supporting him for the position of President." — Theodore 
Eoosevelt to J. C. Martin, 1908. 

"I venture to say, my dear friends, that if this visit to Eome 
had occurred 40 or 50 years before, it would have sunk any ad- 
ministration responsible for it. This goes to show the in- 
creasing tolerance, that there is between all religious de- 
nominations. . . . and to make no invidious (envious) dis- 
tinctions in elections on account of religion." — W. H. Taft to 
Catholic , Missionaries. "The President's remarks were re- 
ceived with great applause by the priests" and Cardinal Gib- 
bons cabled the Pope: "President Taft addresses the Con- 
gress tonight." — Washington Post, June 11, 1909. 

Thus under Eoosevelt and Taft, through the "impostures 
of pretended patriotism" the Eoman Catholic Church "sup- 
plant by fraud ' ' with their presidential ^ ' indifference ' ' and ^ ' in- 
creasing tolerance," "indifference" and "increasing toler- 
ance" which Lincoln and the men who made the Eepublican 
party, would call treason. These two Presidents, the one 
made by a Catholic bullet and depending on Catholic advice 
in National emergencies, have grown so great in eight short 
years of Catholic ascendency, that they may openly and safely 
rebuke George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and the men 
who made the Eepublican party. 

If the Eepublican party now endorses Taft and Eoosevelt, 
it repudiates Lincoln and the National platform of 1864, or 
the Eoman Catlwlic Church has repudiated her tenets of the 
days of Washington and Lincoln. 

Two other alternatives remain — these Presidents could have 
been duped, or bought. Whatever it be, unless the Eoman 
Catholic Church has changed, its "increasing tolerance" and 



269 

entrenchment in this Government by a President of the Ignited 
States, is by Washington and Lincoln, but synonymous to 
treason to the State. Under the very eyes, in the trying and 
bloody experience of Lincoln and his party in 1861-1865 cul- 
minated the Presidential ''increasing tolerance" and en- 
trenching of the Koman Catholic power in this Government, 
culminated in treason, in war with its desolation and estrange- 
ments. "Perhaps you do not know that the war of secession 
in the LTnited States was brought about by Jesuit intrigue. 
I knew that at the time ; and yet I was surprised to find that 
Pastor Chiniquy knew the fact, and asserted also that Presi- 
dent Lincoln was murdered by a Jesuit emissary." (Lord 
Eobert Montague.) "The futile attempt to set up an empire 
in Mexico was also a Jesuit intrigue." (Lord Eobert Mon- 
tague.) In the "era of good feeling" and "increasing toler- 
ance" of this power insidiously sapping the foundations of 
the government, indifferent to the declaration of Lincoln, "he 
whose wisdom surpasses that of all philosophers has declared 
that 'a house divided against itself cannot stand,' they are 
the two principles that have stood face to face from the be- 
ginning of time, and will ever continue to struggle. The one 
is the common right of humanity, and the other the divine 
right of kings," we are now being led toward another culmi- 
nation of treason, in the aid being given bv the President to 
"SUPPLANT BY FEAUD," and subversion our free insti- 
tutions. 

"We have just cause for congratulation also in the fact that 
we have so large a representation of our order in the halls of 
Congress, and I predict and pray that the time ivill come ivhen 
the orders of the Catholic Church can muster a QUOEUM in 
the House of Representatives. (Applause.) We have energy 
and tenacity of purpose, and when that institution on the hill 
HAS GIVEN HISTOEY AS IT OUGHT TO BE WEITTEN 
Catholics will be given the place which has been denied them, 
sometimes maliciously, for twenty-five years. In New Haven 
we have the finest piece of land in the very heart of PUEI- 
TANISM."— D. Colwell, Sec'v Knights of Columbus (Wash- 
ington Post, April 15th, 1904). 

"The work of the Plymouth emigrants was the glory of 
their age. While we reverence their memory, let us not forget 
how vastly greater our OPPOETUNITY."— Lincohi to J. H. 
Choate, Dec. 19th, 1864. 

"Cleveland, Ohio, April 16 (1909).— A national movement 
among the Knights of Columbus of America to secure ap- 
pointment of another member of President Taft's Cabinet, to 



270 

be known as the Secretary of Health has been started here." 
— Washington Times. 

And the spirit of the Catholic Knighthood of Columbus is 
well expressed in the address of Archbishop Glennon before 
the Elnights in Mobile last August, whose fervid and impa- 
tient hope of the success of treasonable conspiracy is ill con- 
cealed between its eloquent lines. ''AYhat answer will you 
give to the. multitude that waits? Can we say to them, 'Be 
not disheartened, nations may default,, kings (and 
Presidents) may betray, yet for us (priests) and you 
(laymen) who wait the Star of Bethlehem will shine again, 
shall still be the star to lead you on. The cause of Christ shall 
still be the cause to fight for; never shall that cause, while 
ive have ar^ns to defend it, become a lost cause. The flag of 
Christ shall never be a conquered banner, for you today as 
soldiers stand ready to rally around that flag and march be- 
neath it, sword in hand, more numerous now in your knight- 
hood, and in resolve just as devoted and consecrated as those 
who long ago scaled the walls of Antioch and marched to vic- 
tory by the sepulchre of Christ. * ^ * And to accomplish 
this I would say from this sanctuary to you who are now be- 
fore it. Take from the altar your crosses, wear them over 
hearts to them consecrated. Learn of Him who died thereon 
the lesson of courage, of fidelity. And then, after Christ to 
Christ's" Yicar bowing, offer obedience, devotion, service — the 
great Shepherd of souls, who from beside the tomb of Peter 
governs the city and the world. And coming then nearer 
home to your bishops and pastors, ever offering as men and 
councils reasonable service. What further? Sustain every 
cause that is noble, placing citizenship above party, extending 
to all irrespective of race or creed, the openhanded justice you 
demand for yourselves. Cast away all subserviency. Cath- 
olics today (the days of Roosevelt and Taft), instead of mak- 
ing apologies, should demand restitution." Restitution of 
what? Restitution to the Pope, of a country discovered by Co- 
lumbus, in the name of Catholic Spain? AVhere in the closing 
peroration is a tribute to the stars and stripes, the white flag 
of Jewish royalty, pinning with golden stars of promise, the 
covenant of God to the blue firmament of everlasting truth, 
and striped with the Cardinal red of Paulican witnesses for 
Christ, at the hands of these apologists for murder? Where, 
an acknowledgment the hospitality of our law to the oath 
bound alien, who is allowed under the stars and stripes to plot 
and talk black throated treason. 

That this spy, and rebellion breeder, well knows the scope 



271 

and possible destinies of this great country, and that he itches, 
and can scarce abide the time of its consummation for his Sa- 
tanic Majesty is well disclosed in his closing lines: ''This 
'templom Dei non manuf actum' you will raise to the Christ. 
It is His tabernacle with men (Rev., 21 :3), and beneath it true 
knighthood will find its home. On its ivalls shall l)e written 
the records of your virtues and sacrifices, and they ivlio help 
to huild it shall be croivned forevermore/' 

"The Pope responded (to Mgr. Farley) by saying that 
America held the foremost place in his affections; that he 
recognizes and appreciates the generosity and the devotion 
of Americans and looks forivard to the day when HERESY 
shall be SWEPT AWAY and America shall become not only 
the greatest poiver in the world, but the most Catholic nation." 
St. Louis Post-Dispatch, June 30th, 1909. There is much 
"tolerance" in the Pope's anticipation of the day when 
"heresy shall be SWEPT away" in America. This utterance 
of the Pope justifies today the warnings of Washington and 
Lincoln. He considers this condition seriously and hopefully. 
When will Americans associate this power with the Revolu- 
tion, as did Washington, and with the Rebellion, as did Lin- 
coln — consider it seriously in the light of blood? 

Entrenched in the administration of the Government and 
uprising to ' ' overthrow by force or supplant by fraud, ' ' they 
(,'ould tie up every railway and large manufacturing plant 
(the priest is a growing factor in strikes), cut every telegraph 
wire, isolate every city and town, and paralyze every adminis- 
trative Department of the Federal Grovernment. 

Order out the 94 per cent of Catholics in the Bureau of En- 
graving and Printing alone, and in a few days you have par- 
alyzed the Post Office Department and the Internal Revenue 
Bureau, and seriously crippled the Treasury, for you could 
not print a postage or revenue stamp, a bond or a bank note. 
Take similar action in all other Departments of the Govern- 
ment, the administration could be paralyzed TODAY. One- 
sixth of the population armed, acting in concert could have 
reasonable show of success, against five-sixths unarmed, un- 
suspecting, unprepared. Laugh at it, and remember it is not 
my prediction, but that of Washington and Lincoln. If Amer- 
ica lives, monarchy dies, and with it the Roman Catholic 
Church, for it is a monarchy. 

If the Republic be "supplanted by fraud," monarchy tri- 
umphs over democracy, Catholicism over Protestantism. "He 
whose wisdom surpasses that of all philosophers (and poli- 
ticians and demagogues) has declared that 'a house divided 



• 272 

against itself can not stand. ' * * * Jt will become all one 
thing or all the other. * * * ^g ^ nation of freemen, we 
must live through all time or die by suicide." — Lincoln. 
Washington and Lincoln did not ignore the indelible facts 
of history. ''Philadelphia, April 27. — Mr. Bonaparte (late 
Attorney Greneral and a Catholic) said in part: 'It is true 
that within the last century and a quarter the growth of this 
country has been marvelous; but the growth of the Catholic 
Church in this country has been far more marvelous. While 
the number of Americans has increased some twenty or twen- 
ty-five fold, the number of American Catholics has increased 
nearly or quite four hundred fold. ' ' What is religious tolera- 
tion! Is it entrenching in the structure of a free government 
Avith power to paralyze its administrative function, a power 
which for centuries and today is against all free institutions as 
a vital part of their religious pretention? If we have no right; 
to ask the President for his private views, we do have a right 
to ask him as trustee of our liberties, whether this is ' ' religious 
toleration" or national betrayal and treason. 

The Apostle Paul writes to Timothy, first letter. Chap. 4r 
''Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times- 
some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing 
spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; 
having their conscience seared with a hot iron ; Forbidding to 
marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God 
hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which 
believe and know the truth. For every creature of God is 
good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanks- 
giving: For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer. 
If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou 
shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ. * * *>' Mr. Pro- 
testant Preacher, does your "religious tolerance" allow you 
to be "a good minister of Jesus Christ," or was Paul "just
